This jam is open to all skill levels and instruments typically found at old-time jams (fiddle, banjo, guitar, bass, lap dulcimer, autoharp, harmonica, hammered dulcimer, cello, and ukulele among others). Dancers are welcome, too. Come play, dance, or just listen. As you head this way for the old-time jam, bring along your lunch and join us on the lawn for a picnic. We will have drinks and snacks for $1 and our front porch jam will feature great southern mountain music. Bring your blankets, food, friends, and family for a lovely weekend treat. If the weather is cold or wet, we will party in the parlor! There will be no admission fee for the Museum that afternoon. Y’all come!

“The Gold Rush” covers the tragedy and misery suffered by the pioneers who first journeyed to the icebound Alaska, and braved mountains, ice, snow and starvation in their mad rush for gold. But in Chaplin fashion is turned into one of the funniest and most hilarious comedies of his career.
