When:    7:00 pm, Tuesday, February 12, 2013
Where: Kitzel's Crazy Delicious Delicatessen, 514 Capital Way, Olympia  (Phone 360.357.7747)

February's topic is The New Golden Age of Bow Making.

Robert Ray of R.L. Ray Violin Shop (Olympia) will take us on a tour of bow making from the 18th Century to the present. His presentation will encompass the historical, economical and cultural events that helped shape bow making as we know it today, including:

• the early makers of the modern bow from Tourte through Peccatte (circa 1770-1860),

• the middle period, Voirin to Sartory (circa 1860-1930),

• the demise of bow making and the last of the great French school (circa 1930-1960), and

• the new era of bow making (circa 1960-2012).

March Topic:

Science Café of Olympia meets each month on the second Tuesday. It provides an informal atmosphere where people with and without scientific background can meet to deepen their understanding of interesting topics in science and technology. After a presentation by an expert in the field, the meetings are opened for discussion. Science Cafés are found nationwide and are loosely affiliated with the U.K.-based Cafe Scientifique, an international organization promoting public engagement with science.

Some of the organizers of Science Café of Olympia are affiliated with the Puget Sound Chapter of The American Chemical Society.

Send us your comments and suggestions on topics, speakers and how we can improve our meetings. Feel free to pass this notice on to like-minded friends.

 at KITZEL'S 

Saturday, Sept 22 

6-8pm

You can delight in delicious delicatessen delicacies while being entertained by local family band Fiddlie-I-Ay and Seattle favorites Small Time Stringband. Then bust out your own instrument and pull up a chair for an open old time music jam.

Fiddlie-I-Ay is a family stringband from Olympia, Washington. Sisters Maggie and Ruby Neatherlin anchor the band on fiddle and mandolin. They are backed up on banjo, ukulele, guitar by their parents Erik Neatherlin and Emily Teachout and and family-friend Rich Hoey

on bass. They play rolicking old time fiddle tunes, vintage songs, and mountain ballads with the aim of making you smile, and maybe even dance, to their lively old timey tunes! They were recently featured on a compilation album of kid-oriented music called PB & Jam with their mentor Professor Banjo and are often seen busking around town or playing for square dances and parties.

The Smalltime Stringband is a family band that plays old time music in and around Seattle Washington. The two brothers in the band, Oliver and Eli, have been playing music for as long as they can remember. They also love busking on the streets of Seattle and gained their inspiration from the Northwest fiddlers and string bands in the area. They've got a brand new CD out called "Perfect Pitch" featuring Oliver's rip-roaring fiddle and Eli's steller banjo playing.

Suggested donation $5 per person/$15 per family requested.
