In this space, I often write about special events held around our county in the areas of entertainment, art, and history. This week I’d like to tell you about memberships in a few nonprofit organizations that bring you wonderful events through the year.
If you’re an outdoor person, consider joining Citizens United to Protect the Maurice River and its Tributaries—CU for short! Memberships for individuals are $20, families are $30, and “river bankers” are $250.
CU organized in 1979 and was able to have the river and its tributaries designated as Wild and Scenic by the federal government. Vice President Al Gore presided over the designation ceremony along the riverbanks in 1994. To learn more about the organization’s activities, visit cumauriceriver.org/join-renew-donate.
More exploration of the outdoors along with the history of oystering will make you a fan of the Bayshore Center at Bivalve. The Bayshore Discovery Project occupies original watermen’s sheds at the confluence of the Maurice River and the Delaware Bay. The Bayshore Center displays much of the local history and art of the region. The most popular of the exhibits is the tall ship, A.J. Meerwald, also dubbed New Jersey’s tall ship. The original oyster schooner is available for sailing events when docked in Bivalve.
Bayshore Discovery hosts monthly 2nd Fridays complete with art exhibits, live music, oysters and more. Everyone is welcome to attend. Membership for adults is $45, seniors and students are $35. There are discounts for ticketed events at this level. Supporters will be $100 and entitle you to deeper discounts. Sustaining membership is $250 with even more benefits; learn about it all at bayshorecenter.org.
Come inside and become a member of the Levoy Theatre. Membership is $50 and entitles you to ticket discounts, advance sales, dining and retail discounts, concession coupons, gift shop merchandise discounts and ticket exchange options.
