Special Performance by McKinley James
6 PM
Performing a serious mix of Motown, soul, blues, and rock ‘n roll, McKinley James isn’t just a household name—he’s a household sound. His searing, lead lines streak like jet trails from a 747. Aficionados first gravitate to his guitar playing and then realize he’s also one of the best vocalists in the game. McKinley will plug in and summon the spirits of his own idols- nearly forgotten pioneers like Otis Rush, Johnny “Guitar” Watson, Magic Sam and Lightnin’ Hopkins.

Dogs with the exception of service animals are not allowed in the buildings including the mansion.
We will have water refill and doggie bag stations on the property. Please BYOBowl to fill and refill with water for your dog. If you don’t have a collapsible bowl and want something that’s easy to carry around, try making one out of materials you could already have at home. Like this one from a dog food bag or this one from a cereal box and bag.
For more information on why we no longer provide communal bowls, check out this article from the AKC and this article from Preventative Vet.
