The doors will open at 6:30 p.m. with ample time to tour the museum and grab a glass of bubbly and hors d’oeuvres. The museum has teamed up with Cannon Beach Soap Company to create a special Black Valentine Gift basket. The basket will contain a bar of their activated char- coal soap, bath scrub, salts and a black bath bomb. The basket will also include a bottle of wine and two wine glasses from the Ocean Lodge. Not to mention a tasty box of chocolates from Schwietert’s Cones and Candy. You may purchase raffle tickets at the concert for $5. (Have a little patience because the basket won’t be raffled off until the end of the evening.) You must be present to win. The museum is located at 1387 S.
