SUMMARY:FeST
DESCRIPTION:Each year St. Matthews Episcopal Church celebrates the many talents of our parishioners at our holiday craft fair\, bake sale\, and BBQ lunch known as the Festival of the Society Tree (FeST). FeST 2026 will be on Saturday\, December 6th from 10am- 2p at St. Matthews Episcopal Church. This event is named in honor of the efforts of the ladies sewing society who in 1867 used what was then a novelty\, the Christmas tree\, as a way to sell their wonderful handiwork in the community. The Society raised funds for much of the architectural additions and furnishing that still grace our historic church building. Today all proceeds from FeST go to help people in need in Orange and Durham counties through donations to local non-profit organizations. Please come shop for holiday gifts\, fill your table with delicious baked goods\, sit down at the table with us to enjoy a BBQ lunch\, and tour our historic church sanctuary.  All are welcome!

SUMMARY:Nick and Brew Album Release Event

Blending blues\, funk\, rock\, and reggae\, guitarist Andy “Kush” Kushner delivers a sound that feels both timeless and fresh. The Off The Hog Food Truck will be on-site and serving up a variety of your favorites! TICKETS:$10/$15 \nAndy’s playing channels the influence of legends like Stevie Ray Vaughan\, Albert King\, Jimi Hendrix\, and David Gilmour — soulful guitar work\, deep grooves\, and expressive improvisation that moves easily from smoky blues to upbeat\, feel-good jams. Backed by a powerhouse lineup of top local musicians\, the band creates a sound that’s rich\, energetic\, and built for a great night of live music. \nRaised in the vibrant San Francisco Bay Area and now based in Raleigh\, Andy first found his footing in blues jam sessions before dedicating himself to life on the road. Years of gigging along California’s Central Coast sharpened his craft and deepened his connection to the music. That journey eventually led to a five-year touring run with reggae icon Pato Banton from 2014–2019\, performing hundreds of shows across the U.S. and internationally. \nCome early\, grab some food\, and settle in for a night of great music\, good company\, and the easygoing atmosphere that makes evenings at The Bar(n) something special. \nWe’re excited to welcome Off the Hog food truck for the evening\, serving up barbecue\, tacos\, and Southern favorites. Off the Hog is known for their traditionally smoked meats\, slow-cooked over hardwoods and coals and crafted from carefully selected cuts — the kind of honest\, satisfying food that pairs perfectly with a night of live music. \n—- \nAndy Kush Band\, Friday\, March 27\, 6-11PM\nThe Bar(n) at Sonark Farms\n6:00 PM — Doors Open/ Food Truck: Off the Hog (Barbecue • Tacos • Southern)\n8:00 PM — Andy Kush Band Live \nTickets: $10 Advance / $15 Day of Show\nhttps://www.sonarkfarms.com/event-details/the-andy-kush-band
