An evening of electronic music in the Blackbox Studio Theater on the Ursinus campus, half past seven. Free and open to anyone, same as the rest of the college music calendar.

Augustus Lutheran Church (Old Trappe Church)
The Old Trappe Church, built between 1743 and 1745, served as a Continental Army field hospital and has been a National Historic Landmark since 1967. Henry Melchior Muhlenberg was pastor here from 1742 until his death in 1787, and the congregation still holds 8 am communion in the old stone building.
Perkiomen Bridge
Six stone arches have carried Ridge Pike over Perkiomen Creek since 1799, one of the oldest stone arch bridges still in use in the country. Residents burned down toll booths twice, in 1867 and 1872, rather than pay to cross it.
Bomberger Hall
The landmark Victorian building at the center of Ursinus College, bell tower and all, with Bomberger Auditorium inside for concerts and lectures. Worth a look if you're walking the campus off Main Street.
