<h2>Parlor of Impossibilities</h2>
<h3>An Intimate Evening of Magic &amp; Mind Reading with Las Vegas Performer Jason Bird</h3>
Step into a world where reality begins to blur.
After more than two decades headlining in Las Vegas and performing over 9,000 shows around the globe, magician and mentalist Jason Bird brings his acclaimed theatrical experience, Parlor of Impossibilities, to the Delamar Hotel in West Hartford.
Unlike a traditional stage show, Parlor of Impossibilities is an intimate, immersive evening where every seat is close to the action. Guests witness astonishing sleight of hand, impossible predictions, mind reading, and moments that challenge logic itself—all unfolding just feet away.
Equal parts mysterious, elegant, and surprisingly funny, this 80-minute production invites audiences to become part of the experience as impossible coincidences unfold and the ordinary becomes extraordinary.
Whether you're planning a memorable date night, celebrating a special occasion, or simply looking for something unique to do, Parlor of Impossibilities offers an unforgettable evening unlike anything else in Connecticut.
Sunday, July 26, 2026 
Performances at 4:00 PM &amp; 7:00 PM 
Delamar Hotel 
West Hartford, CT
With only 60 guests per performance, advance tickets are strongly recommended.

Battell Music Shed

Join conductor Gabriel Löfvall for 'From Roots to Promise: Singing America at 250,' a powerful choral performance featuring Cecilia McDowall's 'Everyday Wonders' and Carol Barnett's bluegrass mass, 'The World Beloved.' This diverse program will be accompanied by fiddle, mandolin, banjo, guitar, and bass, with tickets available for $35 or $30 for students and seniors. Tickets available on website.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;<a href="https://litchfieldcountychoralunion.com/tickets" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">PURCHASE TICKETS HERE!</a>&nbsp; &nbsp;This unusual programming highlights the irony of a Syrian/Kurdish handicapped woman being able to receive asylum from war torn Aleppo in, of all places, Germany, while we, in the United States, under the present Administration have asylum bans on such countries as Syria and Haiti! We make hauntingly beautiful music as prayer for the time we can, once again be that country of Promise; a Land of Milk and Honey; Opportunity; Safe Harbor.&nbsp;&nbsp;"Give me your tired, your poor, Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free, The wretched refuse of your teeming shore. Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me, I lift my lamp beside the golden door!" from Emma Lazarus' poem "The New Colossus" on the base of the Statue of Liberty.&nbsp;

Historic Stanley-Whitman House in Farmington

Stanley-Whitman House

Stanley-Whitman House, a ca. 1720 National Historic Landmark in the heart of Farmington, Connecticut, is more than a museum; it is a living storybook of New England’s colonial past. For nearly a century, this house museum has welcomed visitors to step back in time and discover the rhythms of daily life in 18th- and early 19th-century Farmington. We offer guided house tours, seasonal programs, school field trips, and hands-on workshops that illuminate history through experience. From hearth cooking and foodways demonstrations to gravestone cleaning workshops and walking tours of Memento Mori Cemetery, each program brings to life the traditions, struggles, and resilience of early residents. Our growing America250 initiatives highlight Farmington’s role in the Revolutionary War, showcasing both well-known patriots and underrepresented voices, including women, Indigenous peoples, and African Americans. Our interpretive gardens, artist interventions, and rotating exhibits connect the past to the present, while our partnerships with local schools, historical societies, and cultural organizations deepen community impact. The Stanley-Whitman House also serves as a resource for genealogists, researchers, and heritage travelers who seek authentic connections to New England history. What makes us unique is the way we blend scholarship with storytelling, preservation with participation. Visitors don’t just learn history here; they touch it, taste it, and walk in its footsteps. Whether you join us for a house tour, attend a lecture, bring your students, or support us through membership and special events like our annual Progressive Dinner, you become part of a tradition of keeping history alive for future generations. For more information, hours, and upcoming programs, visit www.s-wh.org .
