Folkus Fans!

This Friday, March 21, at 8 o'clock, MICHAEL JERLING performs at May  
Memorial.

Quirky, clever, and always surprising songwriting

Michael Jerling plays an artful mix of blues, traditional and  
contemporary folk songs, jazz-flavored folk and country-folk. A keen  
student of the good and ghastly in American life, Jerling weaves  
themes like a novelist -- sort of like a musical version of Richard  
Russo (Empire Falls, Nobody's Fool). He evokes our shortcomings and  
dreams without yielding to cynicism or sentimentality. His live shows  
are buoyed by his sharp sense of humor, his first-rate lyrical sense,  
and impressive musicianship. His smooth baritone voice is backed up  
with consummate skill on six and twelve string guitars, harmonica and  
mandolin.

Gosh, it's nice to know you'll be coming! -- drop us an email or give  
a call and we'll save the seats up front for you! email  
tickets at folkus.org or call 315-440-7444 and tell us your name and how  
many seats to hold.

This is the music we love! This is who we are!
          Joe

VOLUNTEER (still) NEEDED!
Community Relations and Partnerships

The Folkus Project is looking for a Volunteer to help establish and  
maintain relationships with other organizations in CNY that might  
benefit from or share an interest in Folkus programming. Folkus is  
attempting to create cross-programming and cross-promotion  
opportunities with arts organizations, schools, churches, and any  
other cultural or educational groups that might wish to partner with  
Folkus in such efforts. The ideal volunteer will have an  
entrepreneurial spirit in identifying such opportunities, and an ease  
with contacting such organizations and establishing a relationship.  
If you think you might be interested, e-mail volunteer at folkus.org.  
Thanks. Volunteering with Folkus is a rewarding, life-altering  
experience (plus you get into the concerts for free!).
