Step into the early days of recorded sound with a live, hands-on program featuring an original Edison wax cylinder phonograph. Participants will listen to authentic recordings from the 1890s through the 1920s, explore antique phonographs up close, and, as a group, create a real recording on a wax cylinder using genuine early-1900s equipment.

Presented by the Long Island Cylinder Record Company, this engaging educational experience is designed for adults, teens, families, and STEAM audiences alike. Unique, immersive, and fun, the program brings the history of early sound out from behind museum glass and directly into your ears…and your hands!

RSVP is not required but is recommended as space is limited to just 30 seats. Please be sure to reserve your spot early.

Now, with the growth of Lily Pond Group, he’s expanding that vision far beyond the bottle. Influenced by years spent in the Hamptons’ uniquely relaxed and refined culture, Jesse’s approach to brand-building is all about capturing a feeling: the blend of ease, taste, and connection that defines a perfect summer day out East.
