Join the Chatham Arts Council for the 46th Anniversary Concert of the Bluegrass Experience! Thanks to Opus Financial Advisors and our other arts-lovin’ sponsors, it’s going to be a fabulous afternoon.

When: Sunday, November 19, 3 p.m.

Where: Fearrington Barn, Fearrington Village Pittsboro, NC 27312

How: Buy advance tickets at McIntyre’s Books in Fearrington or online at https://bluegrass2017.brownpapertickets.com/. Tickets are $16 in advance or $20 at the door for adults. Tickets for kids (ages 3-12) are $8.

Why:

Reason #1: Because 46 years of playing together makes a band really dang good. The Bluegrass Experience’s current band members Tommy Edwards, Snuffy Smith, Keith Thomas, Stan Brown, and Michael Aldridge—and former members “Fiddlin Al†McCanless, Leroy Savage, Jimmy Cameron. Bland Simpson will be our master of ceremonies this year.

Reason #2: Because proceeds from the concert will benefit Chatham County children through the Council’s Artists-in-Schools Initiative. The Bluegrass Experience, led by former Chatham County Schools teacher Tommy Edwards, believes in arts and education. They celebrate their 46th anniversary of making music together, and proceeds go to place more artists in more Chatham schools.
