I would like to play a couple songs on my fiddle if there is space to accommodate me on the schedule. Thank you!

Loaned items could be table decorations, lamps, posters (or make one that reflects the beatnik language), records, or tablecloths.

No jewelry at all is okay too -- just carry a book of poetry as your accessory. Beatnik hair and makeup was understated; a simple black cat-eye or thin line of kohl liner is enough.
