Spend an evening enjoying the view while pickin' and listening to a variety of talented artists. All proceeds will help to continue in restoring and beautifying this magical property!

What is a Pickin' Party?

Allow us to explain! While our family is origionally from Southern Illinois, Mama Rhonda, Millie & Andy spent the last 12+ years living and playing music in Nashville, Tennessee. Pickin' Parties are a staple of the Nashville music scene and a great way to meet fellow musicians and enjoy authentic bluegrass/Americana music and the beautiful summer weather.  We truly enjoyed the Pickin' Parties over the years and knew this was something special we needed to introduce in Southern Illinois!

This is a gathering for music lovers of all ages and a great way to introduce young players to new tunes passed down by the older folks.  Pickin' Parties are Blueglass and Americana specific and while we will have an open mic opportunity and featured artists each month, guests are welcome to play in the circles or just enjoy the music!

We hope to see you there!

Tickets can be purchased online or at the door with cash, Venmo or card.

  • $10 per person
