Events for the Coming Week

N-town isn't as jam-packed with big activities as the last few weeks. Nice relaxing pace this week--hardly any tough decisions about which overlapping events you have to miss. But remember, there are still bunches of activities at our library and coffee houses, etc. that aren't listed here. Check out the calendar links to the right.

Tonight at 7 pm at Caffe Galileo, 317 Swede St., The Norristown Business Assn. hosts yet another "Family Feud" bout between the defending champion Arts Council and the yet un-undefeated Feed The Burbs. Always a fun time and lots of laughs.

Tonight through July 27th at Theatre Horizon (Dekalb and Penn Sts), New Cavern Productions will present the hit rock musical The Who's "Tommy." For show times and tickets, go to http://www.eventbrite.com/o/new-cavern-productions-5220323245

One other note, about the new Premier Barber Institute at 573 E Main. They welcome students to their barbering program:  hands-on, interactive, teaches "the lost art of shaving," through demonstrations, live models, audio visual aids and basic classroom instruction; combining practical application with barbering theory.
