St. Albertus Festival Saturday July 30

[kryptonite]

St. Albertus annual festival & music fest is this coming Saturday for any interested parties. Music and bands from 1:00 - 10:00. $5 admission is a real steal. St. Albertus is located at St. Aubin and Canfield, it is Detroit's oldest Polish church although it closed over 20 years ago. PAHSA now operates it as a Polish hertiage site.

They have a web site http://stalbertusdetroit.org/ They are also on Facebook, where I believe there is an actual music schedule. A classical performance 1:00 inside the sanctuary [[quite beautiful church) starts the festival, followed by more music.

Come see some of the volunteer clean up that Kryptonite and a few friends have done, despite the fact that we are aging and in various states of deterioration ourselves.

So far this is the only event I have on my list of things to do this weekend. Beer, Polish food and music! Kryptonite, will the church be open for tours, taking picture's etc?

[kryptonite]

Yes, the church will be open for the entire event to my knowledge. The 1:00 classical music performance on the church organ is, of course, in the sanctuary. Some kind soul volunteered to restore the organ a few years ago - a nice addition to services in the church. When I first started doing volunteer work there the organ was not functioning. The volunteers have accomplished a great deal with an extremely tight budget. I am not Catholic or Polish but I admire their dedication and spirit.
