Summer Sips & Sounds

A Thursday evening concert featuring ‘The Music of the 1890s’ will kick-off with a cocktail reception at 6 pm followed by the performance starting at 6:45 pm. In 1896, a new town called Boca Raton was established on Henry Flagler’s Florida East Coast Railway, and pioneers brought phonographs with them so they could enjoy a little ragtime, the pop music of the period. Tickets are $40 for BRHS members, $45 for nonmembers, and can be purchased online at https://shop.bocahistory.org/collections/tickets.
