Rokeby Museum is excited to host Music with the Museum, an evening of food and music with renowned musicians Paul Asbell and Bob Stannard at the historic Ferrisburgh Town Community Center.

During this event, a silent auction will be held to raise funds for Rokeby Museum’s exhibition fund, which supports the institution’s dedication to sharing the stories of the people who lived and worked at Rokeby. Thanks to the generosity of the William G. Pomeroy Foundation, funds raised during the event will be matched dollar for dollar up to $10,000.

If you are unable to attend Music with the Museum but would still like to help us meet this fundraising match, please consider supporting Rokeby Museum with a donation. Thank you!
