CLEVELAND ROCKS!<br />

The Rock and Roll Hall<br />

of Fame is celebrating<br />

summer the only way<br />

it knows how—by<br />

rocking out with the<br />

legends. Each weekend<br />

will bring a “Meet the<br />

Curator” event, during<br />

which museum staff<br />

will give behind-thescenes<br />

tours and offer<br />

insider knowledge<br />

about exhibits<br />

Springsteen, Michael<br />

Jackson and Les Paul,<br />

among others.<br />

SPOTLIGHT<br />

FARM LIVING // Never mind who moved your<br />

cheese. Instead, learn to make your own in<br />

a workshop at Shelburne Farms, a Vermont<br />

environmental education center known for its<br />

glorious cheddar. The former country estate<br />

of Gilded Age fi nancier William Seward and<br />

his wife, Lila Vanderbilt Webb, the dazzling<br />

spread on the shore of Lake Champlain (with<br />

landscape design by Frederick Law Olmsted)<br />

also boasts a well-appointed inn, a restaurant<br />

and a working farm. Youngsters especially seem<br />

to enjoy frolicking with the free-range chickens.<br />

SPANISH FLY<br />

Party hotspot Mallorca, Spain, will add<br />

to its portfolio of places to cut loose this<br />

month when the Mallorca Rocks Hotel<br />

opens. True to its name, the hotel will<br />

host plenty of rock stars, such as Calvin<br />

Harris (below), by the sweeping lagoonstyle<br />

pool. Pack your dancing shoes.<br />
