Take a walk down memory lane… Remember when The Iron Horse Music Hall was (and still is) a much loved musical venue for all kinds of music? To celebrate the one year anniversary of the reopening of this local treasure, artist Blanche Cybele Derby saved some of her hand drawn posters.

These were designed in the 1990s (B.C Before Computers) when illustrated flyers were posted around town and in the windows of The Horse to advertise various performers. Perhaps you attended one of these shows? Now’s your chance to revisit that era: the posters will be on display during May and June in the glass case at the entrance to the Art and Music Room.
