Beverly Horton and Friends kept the dance floor full Saturday night! Master luthier Rufus Thames joined Beverly on stage for a few songs, and said he had a great time checking this item off his bucket list. We also had some notable attendees, including a group of students from Milligan University and folks from Tanzania. We love having students and international visitors!
