Greetings – “Comfortably Numb” from The Wall (click Mary’s photo to hear her sing it) deals with the urge to protect against the pain of the world, thereby becoming disconnected and adrift. I picked that song to share with you because of the new program we’re offering this Sunday: Sober Salon. This event began with Caffe Lena On the […]
Greetings – Most of the year, the Caffe Lena community is single-handedly bringing the all-are-welcome, don’t-take-yourself-too-seriously culture of folk music to downtown Saratoga. But this coming weekend we’ll have a vast contingent of compatriots because . . The Flurry Festival is coming to town! This extravaganza of traditional music and dance turns the Saratoga City Center into Folk Heaven. Even […]

Greetings – This time of year it can be tempting to hunker down at home instead of braving the snowbanks of Saratoga. And that’s where Caffe Lena TV can come in handy.

Greetings – Between November 15 to December 31–six short weeks–we hold our Annual Fund Drive. This is the Caffe’s most important fundraiser of the year. We need to raise $75,000. During the past twelve months, I hope we’ve earned your support and given you what you came looking for, whether it was music, connection or learning. Please […]
Greetings – While a good chunk of Saratoga was swamped by a power failure on Halloween, the lights mercifully stayed on at Lena’s for a couple shows of Grateful Dead covers by Deadgrass. The crowd had a heck of a good time punctuating the familiar songs with whoops and cheers. Good vibes fueled by good music, happy memories, […]
