November 8, 2008: Celjun Day and special Jam des Amis with Celjun

back to Home Page

Celjun Day, originally scheduled for Sept. 13, is back on! It'll take place on Saturday, November 8, from 3-6 p.m. and will feature fantastic local musicians Tony Davoren, Anya Burgess, Pete Dawson and Mitch Reed. There will be a mini-performance and workshops in fiddle, guitar/bouzouki, percussion, and vocals. Tony, Anya, Pete and Mitch will customize their workshop instruction to the levels, instruments and interests of our participants; so, whether you're an Irish player wanting to learn some Cajun licks or a Creole player interested in Celtic connections, bring your instruments and be prepared to have some fun! The cost is just $10 ($8 for members of Friends of LFR).

The day will wrap up with a very special Jam des Amis led by Celjun, from 6-8 p.m. Players of all levels and singers, too, are encouraged to join in.

It all takes place at the Acadiana Center for the Arts, 101 W. Vermilion in downtown Lafayette. Advance registration is encouraged for the Celjun Day workshop. Please don't hesitate to give us a call at (337) 234-8360 or e-mail us at info@lafolkroots.org to find out more or to reserve your place.
