Presented by Aubrey Atwater & Elwood Donnelly
A lively and entertaining performance-lecture celebrating traditional folk music and Florida’s earliest musical roots.
Now in its 37th year, the Manasota Beach Club Monday Lecture Series brings together leading voices in Gulf Coast ecology, environmental science, archaeology, and Florida history. Each week, guests explore topics ranging from hurricane recovery and coastal sustainability to the region’s cultural heritage, early folk music, and groundbreaking scientific research.
Hosted on the historic 15-acre Manasota Beach Club property — listed on the National Register of Historic Places — the series continues the Buffum family’s long tradition of community education and stewardship. All are welcome to attend these “lecture and learn” sessions, held on Mondays from 10:00 to 11:30 AM, with light refreshments provided.
Due to limited space, reservations are required.
