All Things Victorian First Place TV Award For Cape Ann TV

Lisa Griffiths aka Victoriana Lady Lisa (aka That Nutty Redhead) wearing circa 1900 attire from her antique traveling museum collection. Shawl donated by Cape Ann resident Ruth Burnham.

I am incredibly honored, and proud, of John Grant and my 1st Place Award for our TV program “All Things Victorian” which airs Thursday 8:30pm on Cape Ann TV. We attended the awards ceremony today in NH. We won for “Profile Talk Show” in the professional category, in the northeast region including New England and New York. We are delighted that other TV stations already want to broadcast the program in their area.

​
We thank the Alliance for Community Media, their judges, and Cape Ann TV for this wonderful opportunity to promote Victorian history. I also thank my soul mate and co-producer John Thomas Grant for creating this program, and for the hours of work that he puts into each show.
We are excited about the upcoming episodes, which include a Victorian Tea at the historic Emerson Inn in Rockport, an exclusive Steampunk exhibition, a Victorian baking show, an expert on Genealogy, and much more. Stay tuned, and prepare to be dazzled!
You can watch episodes on CapeAnnTV.org and on Youtube under “All Things Victorian.”

As many of you know  have a Kickstarter Project underway with only 3 weeks left. I’m not yet halfway to my goal yet. My record of accomplishments should encourage you to sponsor me with confidence. I’m a woman who gets the job done. I humbly ask for your support for my business, and I thank those that have already joined me on this incredible journey. The exposure from my TV program generates interest in my gourmet nut business. (My recipe is based on my Victorian grandmother’s recipe, so it all ties in together. )
Please partner with me. Any and all dollar amounts will be appreciated, as it adds up when many people come together. I have wonderful thank you rewards waiting for you!

My sincerest thanks!! To be a sponsor- https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1019762443/that-nutty-redhead-praline-gourmet-nuts?ref=nav_search

Comedy at The Rhumb Line November 6th

Fred writes-

Hi Joey

We are having a comedy show at The Rhumb Line Nov. 6th with two people with strong connections to Gloucester…including nationally known Paul D’Angello who is known in real life as Paul Murphy . He was an Assistant DA in Gloucester for a few years and did stand up on the side as Paul D’Angello. Also joining him is Dugie Russell who was the District Court Officer in Gloucester for 15+ years. They are both friends of mine and I might do a little stand up myself. It’s going to be a laugh riot.

Tickets are only $15 and are on sale at The Rhumb Line.

Doors open at 6pm ..The show starts at 7pm .
