The Mad Potter Block Party member appreciation event co-hosted by O’Keefe Financial Services kicks off on Friday, July 12th, from 4 pm to 8 pm. The party starts at the end of George Ohr’s 162nd Birthday Celebration and is meant to bring members together in support of the museum. Members are asked to invite a friend that would be interested in becoming a member. Members and their guests will be treated to all-you-can-eat BBQ with two 50 lb roasted pigs, a (foam) brick toss game that offers a chance to win membership and other prizes, OOMA Trivia, the funktastic sounds of Blackwater Brass, and many other activities! BBQ plates will be $10 per plate for non-members.

Rumor has it that the event will also be attended by George Ohr himself, recently returned from a long hiatus on the other side of the River Styx. Patrons are asked not to inquire with George about what awaits in the afterlife as it seems he can’t remember very well himself. Please be patient with George while he re-acclimates himself with not just the living world, but the world of technology with which he now finds himself surrounded.

Museum memberships are available via the museum’s newly redesigned website georgeohr.org. Members and non-members can also RSVP at this link.
