Poi Dog Pondering Concert
2018-05-05 18:00 - 19:30 | Truman Waterfront Park Amphitheater, 21 Quay Rd, Key West, FL, 33040, United States
Following the Papio Kinetic Parade, Poi Dog Pondering takes the stage at Truman Waterfront Park Amphitheater.
Poi dog pondering keeps thriving because their ethic has always been about following their musical heart. Their steadfast independence has allowed them to perennially bloom. Multi Racial, Omni sexual, and unafraid to be themselves, they prowl the musical landscape with a hungry belly. They seem to live in a frame of mind more akin to the 30's and 40's Bohemians.
Known as "The little big band with the strong back and supple / stubborn heart", PDP has been following it's intuition for 25 years now. From bohemian street buskers to impossible to market major label sacrificial lambs... Poi dog pondering have ripened into staunchly independent musical voyagers. They have let every sound that excited them flow through their music and flood it with ever changing colors; Rock and soul. Orchestral, acoustic and electronic textures. Americana, rock band disco and international musics. All threaded along the way with lyrics that embrace the beauty and pain that life can bring.

Papio Kinetic Sculpture Parade
2018-05-05 17:00 - 19:00 | The Custom House, 281 Front Street, Key West, FL, 33040, United States
Inspired by and named for the late Keys artist Stanley Papio, a humorous rebel metal-artist who explored the value of recycled materials long before it was hip to be rusty, a full weekend of kinetic revelry kicks off on May 4 and runs through May 6, with the parade itself launching from the Custom House Museum, Saturday, May 5 at 5:00pm, followed by a post-parade party and concert, complete with cash awards for the best kinetic sculpture floats and art bikes. Contact Adele Williams for registration.

Home Depot Day
2018-03-03 09:00 - 12:00 | Home Depo, 2811 N Roosevelt Boulevard, Key West, FL, 33040, United States
Every 1st Saturday is "Home Depot Day" for kids in Key West. I'm not sure if they do this in every Home Depot store all over the country, but it's a big hit Key West.
At this monthly event - you'll find dozens of busy children: -

hammering,

building, and

painting

Home Depot provides tools, and kits (a different project kit each month). While supplies last kid work aprons are provided that children reuse, and at future visits. Souvenir project pins can be collected.
Collecting pins on aprons reminds me of Hard Rock suspenders full of collector pins from various Hard Rocks around the world.
Thank you Home Depot for the many years of Saturday fun!
