This weekend in Bethlehem, PA

At Cut The Scrap in Allentown, this one day scrapbook retreat welcomes a small group of adult scrapbookers and beginners. The day combines guided mini lessons with generous open crop time, supported by a thoughtfully chosen selection of vintage supplies. Participants can count on friendly hosting, lively music, and plenty of workspace to spread out and complete pages. The flow balances instruction and independent work. Brief demonstrations cover techniques such as layered page design, photo matting, and decorative stitching, followed by long, uninterrupted cropping sessions to put new skills into practice. Instructors move through the room with practical tips, one on one guidance, and creative prompts, helping everyone finish layouts and head home with fresh ideas. It is a relaxed, social experience for makers who want to focus, share stories, and leave with polished pages and a renewed sense of inspiration.

This event features casual Commander play. Every participant receives a pack from any set simply for attending.

An open mic and jam session invites participants to make music together. Bring your instrument of choice, with a drum kit and amplifiers provided. Sign up to perform as a solo act or with a full band. All are welcome, and food and beverages are available.

Spotify highlighted Sober Up among the best rock tracks of the 2010s, while Apple Music recognized Weak as one of the decade’s standout alternative songs, and the band ranks among Spotify’s 500 most-listened-to artists. In 2020, BANG! broke through across radio, hitting No. 6 on Top 40, No. 2 on Alternative, and No. 1 on Adult Pop, becoming their first Top 10 on the Billboard Hot 100. Their 2023 album The Maybe Man introduces a superhero-like figure wrestling with identity, capturing big emotions in a larger-than-life way.
