SUMMARY:The Blue Man Group
DESCRIPTION:There’s really nothing else quite like Blue Man Group. It’s part concert\, part comedy\, part full-on sensory experience… and somehow it all works without a single word being spoken. The trio of blue-painted performers communicates through rhythm\, movement\, and perfectly timed chaos\, turning everyday objects into instruments and the stage into something that feels alive. It’s weird in the best way… the kind of show where you’re not totally sure what’s coming next\, but you’re locked in from the first minute. \nWhat makes it click is the mix of precision and play. One moment you’re watching a tight\, pounding percussion sequence\, the next you’re laughing at something completely unexpected. Paint flies. Lights pulse. The music builds into something bigger than you expect. It’s high-energy\, a little offbeat\, and surprisingly immersive… especially when the audience becomes part of the experience in ways you don’t see coming. \nLive\, it pulls you in fast and doesn’t let go. You’ll see kids\, adults\, first-timers\, repeat fans… all reacting the same way\, somewhere between laughter and “what did I just watch?” That’s kind of the magic of it. If you’re looking for a night that’s different from the usual concert or comedy show\, something visual\, loud\, and genuinely memorable\, Blue Man Group delivers a show that sticks with you long after it’s over.

SUMMARY:Stewart Copeland - Spoken Word Tour
DESCRIPTION:There aren’t many musicians who’ve shaped a decade the way Stewart Copeland did—and now he’s stepping out from behind the kit for a rare\, first-ever U.S. spoken-word tour. As the driving force behind The Police\, Copeland helped define the sound of the 1980s with a style that fused rock\, reggae\, and precision rhythm into something instantly recognizable. But this night isn’t just about the hits… It’s about everything that came with them\, and everything that followed. \nThe evening unfolds as a deep dive into a career that spans far beyond the stage. Copeland brings stories from his time at the center of one of the biggest bands in the world\, along with insights into his work as a film and video game composer\, opera creator\, writer\, and filmmaker. Through photos\, videos\, and live conversation\, he walks through the moments that shaped his path\, mixing sharp humor with the kind of perspective that only comes from having lived it. The tone is loose\, engaging\, and unpredictable… more like sitting in on a conversation than watching a traditional performance. \nFor fans\, this is a rare chance to get closer to the story behind the music. The night includes a Q&A\, giving the audience a chance to interact directly\, and VIP packages add even more access with a pre-show meet and greet\, premium seating\, a personal photo\, and signed items. It’s not just a look back… It’s a chance to hear it all\, firsthand\, from someone who helped define an era and kept creating long after it ended.

Designed as a welcoming workshop series\, the program invites participants of all skill levels to explore sewing in an environment that emphasizes creativity\, accessibility\, and connection. \nThe workshops are structured with beginners in mind while still allowing flexibility for those with more experience. Participants can choose from simple starter projects or bring their own ideas to develop\, creating a balance between guided learning and personal expression. A unique aspect of the program is its focus on upcycling\, with access to materials from the COMO Thrift Shop\, encouraging a resourceful and sustainable approach to design. \nBeyond the technical skills\, the workshops highlight the social side of making\, bringing together individuals and families in a shared creative space. The setting inside the thrift shop adds an element of discovery\, with materials and inspiration readily available. As part of the COMO’s broader mission\, Sew Fun! Workshops reflect a commitment to community engagement\, creativity\, and opportunities for people to come together and create.

SUMMARY:Stewart Copeland - Spoken Word Tour
DESCRIPTION:There aren’t many musicians who’ve shaped a decade the way Stewart Copeland did—and now he’s stepping out from behind the kit for a rare\, first-ever U.S. spoken-word tour. As the driving force behind The Police\, Copeland helped define the sound of the 1980s with a style that fused rock\, reggae\, and precision rhythm into something instantly recognizable. But this night isn’t just about the hits… It’s about everything that came with them\, and everything that followed. \nThe evening unfolds as a deep dive into a career that spans far beyond the stage. Copeland brings stories from his time at the center of one of the biggest bands in the world\, along with insights into his work as a film and video game composer\, opera creator\, writer\, and filmmaker. Through photos\, videos\, and live conversation\, he walks through the moments that shaped his path\, mixing sharp humor with the kind of perspective that only comes from having lived it. The tone is loose\, engaging\, and unpredictable… more like sitting in on a conversation than watching a traditional performance. \nFor fans\, this is a rare chance to get closer to the story behind the music. The night includes a Q&A\, giving the audience a chance to interact directly\, and VIP packages add even more access with a pre-show meet and greet\, premium seating\, a personal photo\, and signed items. It’s not just a look back… It’s a chance to hear it all\, firsthand\, from someone who helped define an era and kept creating long after it ended.

SUMMARY:Sip ‘N’ Spin Pottery Workshops (21+)
DESCRIPTION:Sip ‘N’ Spin Pottery Workshops offer a hands-on creative night for adults looking to trade screens and stress for clay\, conversation\, and a little wine on Fridays through the summer. Designed as a relaxed social workshop for ages 21 and over\, the event combines pottery instruction with a bring-your-own-drink atmosphere that turns the evening into part art class\, part night out. \nThe workshop begins with a professional wheel-throwing demonstration before participants move into creating their own pottery pieces either on the wheel or through handbuilding techniques. Instructors guide guests through the process step-by-step\, making the experience approachable even for complete beginners who have never touched a pottery wheel before. Clay and firing for up to three finished creations are included as part of the workshop. \nWhat makes Sip ‘N’ Spin stand out is the balance between creativity and atmosphere. Rather than a formal class setting\, the evening leans into a casual\, social energy where guests can laugh through uneven bowls\, experiment with clay\, and enjoy drinks while trying something new. Whether it turns into date night\, friends night out\, or simply an excuse to unplug for a couple of hours\, the workshop offers one of the more unique creative experiences happening on the shoreline this month. \n
