Game night, every Sunday in Surry. We play new & old board games, card games, dice games, word games, tile games, team games... bring your favorites! Everyone welcome.

$2/person goes to the community center.

Beginner workshops are perfect for you to grab your friends, grab a drink and come make tiny trees! We’re bringing the awesome art of bonsai out of the hedged in gardens and into the streets! Or at least into your favorite bars/breweries/pubs. Bonsai Bar is a night of fun you don’t want to miss. Learn the fundamental skills and techniques behind the art of bonsai while enjoying a night out with friends! Our teachers will introduce core concepts and guide your experience as you pot, prune, and design your very own bonsai tree! Our Guarantee: These tiny trees are so hardy we guarantee you can keep yours alive, or we’ll replace it.

This workshop will be hosted at Apres. At Après, we’re hellbent on offering craft beverage enthusiasts a unique way to enjoy what they love. Our passionately-made small batch drinks celebrate the traditional and progressive flavors of the Maine lifestyle and are served up in a space filled with friends — both already made and soon to be.

Our naturally calorie-light hard seltzer and gluten-free hard cider call out to the adventurous, inquisitive drinker who cares about fresh ingredients and sustainable living.

Come see us today for a drink at our bar or patio — or grab an ice-cold 4-pack to enjoy at home.
