Welcome to week 15 of The Cape Current, your guide to everything, creative, and community-driven along the Delaware coast.
This week, our feature story takes you behind the scenes at the Freeman Arts Pavilion, where touring artists swap city chaos for coastal calm – trading theater districts for cornfields, crab feasts, and even the occasional recording session in a Fenwick bedroom. It’s a peek at what makes Selbyville’s stage a destination that feels more like retreat than routine.
Elsewhere in this issue, Brewsworthy pairs two local powerhouses – Thompson Island Brewing Company and Lower Case Blues – for a night of riffs, sips, and bites you won’t want to miss. Out & About brings glitter, gratitude, and a whole lot of love with Kadet Kelly’s latest reflection from Rehoboth’s drag scene. In Current Bite, Hari Cameron serves up summer simplicity with an “almost raw” tomato sauce, while Live Like a Local shows you how to picnic smarter (yes, snackleboxes are a thing).
And don’t miss Current Canvas, where artist Ashley Ferracci layers love and memory into her mixed-media show “Until Death,” opening soon in West Rehoboth.
Whether you’re here for the music, the food, or just a little fresh inspiration, we’ve got you covered. Thanks for picking us up – and here’s to another week of living like a local.
