COSHOCTON – In 2014 the Pomerene  Center for the Arts tested a July Family Night Series to great success in the old Park Hotel Lot. That was back in the day when only temporary things were going on in that space. Thursday July 21st and 28th from 6:30-8 p.m. the Pomerene begins programming in the REAL Coshocton artPARK with an annual series of family fun, music and art making. It’s all free (though the Pomerene staff will pass the hat). Families should bring their own picnics.

The schedule of events includes:

  • July 21, 6:30-8 p.m. — Ohio Joe and The Continental Drifters, a groove twangin, honky stompin, psychedelic garage country band will perform. Mary McMullen will be joining the Pomerene staff to help families make hats of all shapes and sizes using the Pomerene’s signature collection of found materials.
  • July 28, 6:30-8 p.m. — Barefoot McCoy will perform a unique blend of folk-rock, and blues. Families are encouraged to bring old stuffed animals in need of a “transformative experience” (the Pomerene will have some on hand to share for those who come empty handed). Everyone who wants will leave with a puppet dressed to the nines.
