Harvestfest in Lyons The Erie Canal Cultural Center is holding '1999 HarvestFest'' with a bounty of art, history, music, and a pork roast dinner, on Sunday, October 17, from noon until 6 p.m. Starting at noon, pork dinners will be sold at the Center itself, located at 165 Water Street in Lyons, right on the canal. Purchase your dinner and choose take-out or eat at the Center itself. Dinners are $7 each and include a choice of potatoes and side dishes. Tickets for the dinner are available through ECCC board members or at the Center the day of the event. From 1 - 2:30 there will be music at the Center, performed by the Lyons Unnamed Band. Members of this group include Tim Morell and Pastor Cynthia Huling-Humel. Anyone who's heard them knows listeners won't be disappointed. Wayne County Council for the Arts will have an opening from 1 - 2:30 at their facility at 2 Broad Street. Entitled 'Harvest the Arts,' this is the first year that the exhibition has coincided with New York State's actual harvest season. Linkins' Music appears at 3 at the Lyons Elementary School. Soprano Jean Linkins, pianist Karen Marsh and violinist Margaret Leenhouts will take you on 'A Musical History Tour,' a unique, multi-media musical presentation of 300 years of cultural history. Following a short intermission, Mike Linkins will be presenting a folk-music tour of Erie Canal history. This program is sponsored by the Inner Council of Churches of Lyons through New York State Council on the Arts' Decentralization Program, administered in Wayne County by WCCA. Admission is free. At the Center itself, visitors may browse art and history exhibits, study plans for the Wayne County canal projects currently underway through HUD, or simply enjoy company of friends and neighbors with a stroll along the historic canal.
