Scottish-born, Appalachian-based singer-songwriter and guitarist Ali Tod returns to The River House for a special hometown show celebrating the release of her debut solo album.

Produced by acclaimed guitarist Kaki King, the new record marks a major new chapter for Ali, combining powerful songwriting and raw vocals with the virtuosic, percussive guitar playing and live looping that have become the signature of her electrifying live shows.

After a year of touring in the US and Europe, Ali brings it all back home to the Cacapon River for an intimate night at The River House, joined by special guest Isaac McCarthy.

Raised in Berkeley County, West Virginia, Isaac McCarthy is an award-winning Appalachian performer, educator, and writer.  His artistry has won accolades from MidAtlantic Arts, WV Arts, and first place at The River House Open Mic Contest. As a dance caller and multi instrumentalist specializing in three finger banjo, he has shared stages with artists like The Wild Shoats and The Mighty Troubadours, bringing his unique blend of Appalachian sound to audiences across the region.

The River House Writer’s Club is a monthly informal gathering for all genres of writing including poetry, short stories, prose and so much more. Each month, the club meets to discuss each other’s writings and develop friendships.

Every other month, the club hosts an established writer who shares their experiences and suggestions with the group. We continue to grow in attendance and look forward to new opportunities in the future. In the past few months, we have been invited to attend book festivals and these events have been invaluable to the club.

Our mission is to foster creative writing on all levels. Everyone is welcome to participate or just come out and listen.

This club meets the 3rd Sunday of each month from 1-3:00pm and we cannot wait to see you there!

Critton Hollow: 7PM

Advance Tickets: $18 | General Admission: $22

Since 1975, Critton Hollow has brought traditional American music to audiences throughout the United States, Canada, Japan, Ireland, and Scotland. With fiddle, hammer dulcimer, banjo, and guitar, the band tends a stable of songs from the first settlements of Appalachia to the best of contemporary American folk music. Songs that express a range of experience that can make you laugh or make you cry and occasionally do both at the same time, ballads that tell stories of bad men and disappointed lovers. Instrumentals that will make you want to get up and dance or sit back and listen. The three members of the band - Joe Herrmann, Sam Herrmann, and Joe Fallon - combine precise instrumentation, melodic interplay, and three part harmony to create a warm and engaging sound. As Mitch Podolak, the artistic director of the Winnipeg Folk Festival, commented, they have a "unique ability to make their audience feel a part of their performance."

 The Critton Hollow String Band has played at numerous folk music venues, festivals, and concerts including the Birchmere Music Club, the Kennedy Center, the Philadelphia Folk Festival, the Carter Family Fold, the Vancouver Folk Festival, Clearwater's Hudson River Revival, and the Upper Potomac Dulcimer Festival. They have appeared on radio shows such as Mountain Stage, Voices from the Mountains, and Live at the Birchmere, and on television shows such as Live at Meyerhoff Symphony Hall, Music from Home, and the Today Show. The band has seven CDs: Gather 'round (2009), The Dulcimer Collection (2000), Cowboys and Indians (1995), Great Dreams (1988), By and By (1985), Sweet Home (1983), and Poor Boy (1979).  

The River House Herb Club is free and open to everyone. On the 4th Sunday of each month we meet from 1:30-3PM at the River House in Capon Bridge, WV.

All ages and experience levels are welcome. The Herb Club also sponsors a Little Free Seed Library for exchanging seeds. It is located at The River House next to the Otter’s Den.

The first Thursday of every month!

Sit in a circle and pass short stories around. Children's tales. Tall tales. Family stories. Special memories. Changing times. Imagination and Flights of Fancy. This is a time for telling. It is not a performance. It is a safe space to play. All styles and skill levels are welcome. Practice for performance or reminisce for pleasure. We are all of us "Once Upon a Time....."

Artisans from around WV and Va will be sharing their goods and talents! Add these Market dates to your calendar so you never miss one!

New artisans interested will go through our jury process and must submit emails of interest to Lynne - glassladylynne@gmail.com

Artisans must sign for each market (the online form will be sent to them on each market date)

The Sip and Stitch club is open to fiber and textile makers, artists, and hobbyists. Whether you knit, embroider, crochet, weave, felt, quilt, cross stitch or something else -- all hooks and needles are welcome! We will meet the first Sunday of the month from 1-3 pm at The River House. Bring your current WIP, share ideas, ask questions and get to know other makers in a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere. The River House sells a variety of hot and cold beverages, as well as offering a seasonal menu.  So you can grab your favorite beverage to sip while you stitch!

It's free to join the club, but there's a suggested donation of $5 per person to The River House to thank them for use of their space and continue to support arts in our community.
