Mike Miller is a home cook and longtime eggnog connoisseur living in Elkins, WV.
This class is made possible with support from the Central Appalachian Living Traditions program from Mid Atlantic Arts.

“On New Year’s Eve, married couple and theatre artists Steven and Vanessa host an annual get-together at their parents’ cabin for their oldest friends, struggling actress Sadie and her new surfer/rock star boyfriend Jude, Bryce, a repressed accountant, and Jodie, a world-weary photojournalist. When Jodie and Bryce drop a relationship bombshell over dinner, they set off a chain reaction of truth-telling that promises to destroy the carefully-crafted reality of everyone present.
How long is too long to wait for your dream? Can art change the world? Are we all doomed? A film about old friends and artistic passion, Auld Lang Syne is a meditation on the creative class, global warming, and the power of damn fine pie.”

Live Music: Pam Roberts & Joe Sabatino | Oxley House
2025-12-20 19:30 - 22:00 | Oxley House, 206 Davis Avenue, Elkins, WV
Join us for an unforgettable evening on Saturday, December 20, from 7:30 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. with Pam Roberts & Joe Sabatino!
Pam Roberts is a guitarist, singer, and songwriter who resides in Elkins, WV. She’s been playing and performing for many years in such groups as Blues Fuse, The Elktones, Pam Roberts Trio, as well as several duos in West Virginia and Virginia. She enjoys playing old jazz standards with their colorful chords and she enjoys singing blues tunes where she can belt them out. Her repertoire includes folk and pop tunes, blues, and Americana. She was influenced by her mother who sang and played piano and loved to play the 40’s jazz tunes such as Autumn Leaves and Pennies from Heaven, along with many others. Pam is keeping those songs alive in her performances.
Joe Sabatino is a 2nd generation harmonica player. Introduced to the harmonica at age three, his father bought him one, and then Joe proceeded to learn how to play it himself. Frank, his father, knew a wide range of songs that he had learned as a youth on trumpet, in the Grant Town, WV Union Hall Marching Band in the late 40s. Joe grew up listening to songs of that era, portrayed on harmonica. This was a prime musical influence, one of many revealed in his eclectic, and unorthodox style.
Bring your friends and experience live music at its finest!
