[Unicum] Magyar Népzene - Urban Winery (Silver Spring, MD), February 7th, 7-9pm

Kedves Mindenki,

Gyertek, táncoljatok egy jót, vagy csak verjétek a ritmust a magyar népzene magával ragadó dallamaira! A Magnólia Zenekar autentikus vonós népzenét hoz Magyarországról és Erdélyből, a Szikra Banda pedig a csángó magyarok ősi, lüktető erejű tánczenéjét szólaltatja meg. Mindkét együttes Washington DC környékén működik, és rendszeres fellépői az északkeleti régió kulturális eseményeinek és táncházainak.

🎶 Időpont: 2026. február 7., 19:00 - 21:00
📍 Helyszín: The Urban Winery 

Várunk szeretettel,
Magnólia Zenekar és Szikra Banda

Dear all,

Come out and dance, or just tap your toes, to the irresistible music of the Hungarian folk tradition! Magnólia Zenekar plays authentic string band music from Hungary and Transylvania and Szikra Banda plays dance music of the Csángó Hungarian people with its energetic, ancient pulse. Both bands are DC-based and perform regularly at cultural events and dance parties throughout the Northeast.

🎶 Date: Saturday, February 7th, 2026
🕢 Time: 7:00 PM – 9:00 PM
📍 Venue: The Urban Winery

Warm regards,
Magnolia Band and Szikra Band

GALVANIZE: August Wilsons 'Fences' in Baltimore MD, Black Out Night

Good day friends,

I'm popping into your inbox with a big theatre hug and an invitation.

My husband and I are getting ready to open August Wilson's Fences at Chesapeake Shakespeare Company, and we would truly love for you to come see it with this absolutely fabulous cast in an absolutely beautiful theatre. There is a Black theatre art display on the third level, as well as a library nook and artifacts from the previous lives of the building on the second floor, an interesting and meaningful look around before curtain.

This production is part of the August Wilson Century Cycle taking place across Maryland, and it has been incredibly meaningful to be inside this work. The language is rich, the humanity is deep, and it is the kind of storytelling that reminds you why we do theatre in the first place.

I especially want to highlight this Thursday night's performance as Black Out Night, a celebration and gathering intended to center Black audiences, Black stories, and community. Tickets for Black Out Night are discounted to 25 dollars, making it a wonderful and accessible night to join us.

For all other performances, we have a little actor love to share. Use discount code FRIENDLY20 for 20 percent off regular adult tickets.

Tickets and details:

Parking, accessibility, and more:

We would truly love to see your faces in the house. Come say hi, cheer loudly, and stay for the post show hugs.

With love and gratitude,
Lolita Marie
