organized many fascinating lectures, demonstrations, and musical

special theme is Winter in Yosemite. Special presentations will show
that
from the start, winter activities were concocted with delightful
creativity,
indoors and out. Ice skating, tobogganing, ski-joring, and
snowshoe-baseball
drew guests outside, while ballroom dancing, musical events, and the
Bracebridge
Dinner enhanced the evening hours.

noon to 4:00
Mrs. Pardee’s
Mellifluous
Musicale with Frederick Hodges at the pianoforte
12:00 to 4:00 PM.
A
charming recreation of
a 1908 family
Independence Day picnic and charity bazaar, with wonderful food, games
and activities for young and old, prizes, and turn of the century
entertainment. Period dress
very strongly encouraged, and rewarded with a discount! Ladies, wear
your
biggest picture hat and you might win the Most Picturesque award.
FOURTH of JULY FUN FROM NO TIME LIKE
THE PRESENT!
THE PARDEE PATRIOTIC PICNIC and Stereopticon Ice Cream Social is a
charming recreation of a 1909 family Independence Day picnic and
charity bazaar, with wonderful food, games and activities for young and
old, prizes, and turn-of-the-century entertainment, including the piano
pyrotechnics of ragtime maestro Frederick Hodges.
WHEN: Saturday, July 4th, 2009 (but let's pretend that it's 1909). Open
noon till 4:00 PM
WHERE: The Pardee Home Museum, 672 11th Street, Oakland, CA 94607. This
Victorian island was home to the Pardee family from its completion in
1869 until the death of the last Pardee daughter in 1981, and still has
its front and rear gardens, with carriage house and water tower. For
this occasion, entry is through the carriage house on 12th Street.
WHO: The picnic is hosted by the Pardee Home Museum, and all proceeds
benefit preservation of the historic house and gardens.
TICKETS: For advance reservation discounts, call 510-444-2187 or go to
www.pardeehome.org. Discounts are also available for dressing
old-timey-- something that would look right for 1890-1920. Ladies, wear
your biggest picture hat and you might win the Most Picturesque award!
TICKET PRICES: Adults, $12; Children 5-11 years $4, under 5 free.
Adults can save $2 apiece off the at-the-door price by purchasing
tickets in advance. Or save the $2 by showing up in period dress-- but
only one discount apiece!
Cash or check only; sorry, no credit cards.
WHAT'S THERE: Admission includes live entertainment: the brilliant
Frederick Hodges holds forth at the pianoforte, dexterously filling the
air with lively turn-of-the-century rags and popular songs of the time,
and accompanying Mrs. Pardee’s Mellifluous Musicale, a "Bouquet of
Vocal Delights". Also included are bountiful picnic food, cold drinks,
and ice cream made on the spot, plus games and activities on the lawn
such as croquet, lawn tennis, volleyball and bubble-blowing. You can
enter the cakewalk to win a delectable prize, and view the latest 3D
pictures in a stereopticon. At the children's craft table boys and
girls can create a special handmade keepsake or gift to take home. The
Benevolent Bazaar (“All for a Good Cause!”) offers a plenteous
assortment of toys, books, sheet music, knickknacks and who-knows-what
for sale.
DIRECTIONS: From the south on 880, take the exit marked "10th and 14th
Streets”, and proceed north two blocks along Castro to the museum. From
San Francisco or Berkeley, turn off 580 onto 980 and take the exit
marked "11th and 12th Streets." Turn left on 11th and the house is
clearly visible after crossing over the freeway. Four blocks from the
12th St. BART station; AC Transit bus lines 14 and 62 provide direct
service to the house on 11th and 12th Streets.
PARKING: It's a holiday! There's free parking on the street-- except on
11th Street.
Come and enjoy a relaxing afternoon in the past-- and you'll enjoy your
day even more knowing that you're supporting the continued preservation
of one of the Bay Area's oldest historic homes.

Gertie the Dinosaur, the world’s first cartoon
superstar. See the Georges M li s fantasy masterpiece
A Trip to the Moon performed as San Francisco
originally saw it – with narration – recreated by
the Niles Essanay Thespian Ensemble. See four lost
illustrated songs. Hear [and see!] songs
accompanied by authentic handcolored magic lantern slides and
song stylings by the inimitable Lori Leigh
Gieleghem and Sean Sharp. The entire affair will be
presided over by Frederick Hodges, who will accompany
the live acts and additional movies in the
authentic nickelodeon style. 35mm Prints will be shown
on our Powers Cameragraph 6B
