Christ Church Organ

Mark your calendars for the Cobblestone Museum’s Progressive Organ Concert on Sunday, June 1st. This progressive concert begins at 3pm at Christ Episcopal Church in Albion. Darryl Smith will be the organist for the first of three, short concerts in churches at the Courthouse Square. The Christ Church organ is a Steere & Turner Pipe Organ from 1873. A wine and cheese reception will follow the first concert at 3:30pm at Christ Church. A short walk to St. Joseph’s Catholic Church follows where guests will enjoy our second short concert featuring local organist Aaron Grabowski. The final concert will take place at the neighboring First Baptist Church where Gary Simboli will demonstrate the amazing breadth of the 1925 Moller Opus Pipe Organ located there.

An optional dinner follows the three concerts at the Tavern on the Ridge at 5:15pm (formerly Tillman’s Village Inn.) A choice of three menu selections will be available for our concert guests. Those who wish to join us at The Tavern on the Ridge can choose from Cottage Pie, French Ham Melt Sandwich with Arugula Salad or Asian Chopped Salad with Ginger Chicken. Coffee or soft drinks are also included. (Cash bar available.)
