HERE’S YOUR CHANCE TO SOLVE A MURDER

Step back in time to a roaring 20s speakeasy run by Rose Marie where a medley of characters will make for a memorable night of intrigue and mystery.

Murder at the Juice Joint is being hosted by the Cumberland County Museum at 150 Church St., Amherst, beginning at 7 p.m. on Oct. 29.

Tickets are $15, via Eventbrite. Once you’ve purchased a ticket you’ll be sent a detailed character description and background information. Get a costume together and arrive in full character.

The host will read the instructions aloud, then each guest will receive a special envelope with information and objects.

After you mingle and get to know the guests the murder occurs. The guests will have to sleuth their way to solve the mystery.
