Come out to the refuge and learn what makes these enchanting creatures light up the night and how we can continue to protect their precious habitat. We’ll introduce you to the amazing world of fireflies as we play games, make firefly crafts, and participate in fun activities. Come join us on July 20 for a free class to learn all about fireflies.

2019-07-20 10:00 - 11:00 (America/Chicago) | Denison Public Library, 300 West Gandy Street, Denison Public Library, Denison, TX, 75020, United States
The Que Pastas are a kindie (kid+indie=kindie) band based out of Austin that has entertained thousands of kids and parents alike in both Texas and Not Texas.
Formed around the core of songwriter Gene Davis and multi-instrumentalist Simon Flory, The Que Pastas play 100+ shows a year at events that range from major festivals to small libraries. The Que Pastas released their debut album, “Sunglasses,” in 2013, and followed it up with “Meet You By The Moon” in 2016.
When not playing music for kids and their families alike, The Que Pastas are often found eating cereal and watching documentaries on Netflix.
What others say:
The Que Pastas are playing “cleverly written, melodically driven songs…(that) isn’t just good kids’ music, but good pop music for people of all ages.” – Denver Post Reverb
“The whole thing is very promising.” – Zooglobble.com
“Quirky and catchy, this is not your average kindie band, and I look forward to seeing what batch of original recipes the ‘Pastas’ cook up next.” – Nugget Island
“Gene Davis (vox/guitar), Simon Flory (bass, banjo), and Jody Suarez (beat of a different drum), (aka The Que Pastas), nearly caused a kiddie riot at Mueller recently in a free concert for KUTX, and sophomore LP Meet You by the Moon bottles the tot mosh.” — Austin Chronicle

2019-07-20 08:00 - 17:00 (America/Chicago) | Tupelo Honey Bar, 101 East Main Street, Denison, TX, 75021, United States
Many Texoma Blues Society members are used to the special monthly concerts which feature powerhouse blues artists/bands from many areas, including Dallas, Ft Worth, Louisiana, even as far away as Italy! Recently tasked with finding some local blues talent for upcoming shows, I found two groups who could currently fit that description. So for our 7/20/19 show – Keeping the Blues Alive Locally – I will present High Water Gamble and Texas Blues Authority. Dario Bellettini and his High Water Gamble band will perform a mostly blues set (some covers and originals) for the Texoma Blues Society concert. After a break, David Wolfe, Tony Garcia and the Texas Blues Authority band will perform a blues set (mostly originals and some covers) for the Texoma Blues Society. Two bands for the price of one. Come hear what local bands are doing to keep the blues alive in Texoma. ~~~ Paul Noel
Tickets will be $25.00 with TBS members getting a 20% discount when paying in advance. For tickets request either HERE or by emailing us at texomabluessociety@gmail.com.

True to your heart.

Be true to your heart when you hear 98° bring the pop on July 19, 2019 at 9:00 PM inside the WinStar Global Event Center.
98° emerged from a pop music era that boy-bands were all the craze. Their staying power comes, however, from how they differentiated themselves from other acts by including a strong R&B influence and by writing much of their own material. This group, with powerhouse brothers Nick and Drew Lachey, are known for hits like “I Do (Cherish You)”, “True to Your Heart,” and “The Hardest Thing.” In just five short years, 98° scored six Top 20 Hits and sold more than 10 million records.
When you groove on down to WinStar on July 19, you can expect to hear hit singles “Thank God I Found you,” “Because of You,” “I Do” and “The Hardest Thing.” Doors to this event open at 7:30 PM for the 9:00 PM showtime. Pick up your tickets at Ticketmaster or at the Global Event Center box office.
