WSLR’s 12th Annual “Very Merry Jerry Day” Saluting Jerry Garcia

Arts & Culture

Break out the tie-dye and hula hoops for WSLR's annual celebration of Jerry Garcia on Sunday, November 7th from 4-9pm. Playing guitar and singing for his band, The Grateful Dead, as well as several others, Garcia took his hippie movement from the 60's into the 90's, inspiring the following of millions of long-haired, tie-dye t-shirted, carefree "Deadheads." Musicians honoring the Dead this year will be Free Range Strange and Dead Set FL.  Food will be provided by the Simply Greek food truck.  This is a family-friendly event, with kids’ activities and local vendors tabling. Attendees can bring t-shirts, socks, etc. for tie-dying, but no coolers please. Come out and help us re-create the mood and celebrate the music of the Grateful Dead.  Tickets are $12 for WSLR members and $15 for the general public; half-price for students and free for children under 12. For more information call WSLR at 941-894-6469.
