Booms, Blues & BBQ includes house tours, an afternoon concert with Scott Perry starting at 4:00 pm and outside demonstrations and living history.

Scott Perry & Front Porch Swing is an acoustic trio that perform an entertaining and engaging blend of vintage blues, jazz, rock & roll and honky tonk.

UPDATE:
Due to unexpected circumstances, there will be no horse drawn wagon shuttle to Solitude.

The celebration at this early 19th century plantation home will coordinate with the other Preston home, Solitude, for shared experiences. Visitors will be encouraged to travel between the two Preston homes and enjoy learning the shared history along with partaking in the entertaining and educational experiences at each site.
