[dcab-l] 4th Sunday jam at the Beans

Beans in the Belfry is an eccentric cafe in downtown Brunswick. The venue is worth a visit if you've never made it. Housed in a 110+ year old church, it's furnished with yard sale furnishings of every imaginable sort. Nooks and crannies for reading or relaxing, trunks of costumes and toys for kids, and a decent menu of light fare, a 1000 beverages including craft beers and local wines, and more. Come do some picking if you can this Sunday from 3-6 PM. Lots of info on the link below:
