🎶 You’re Invited: Play It Forward – A Scholarship Fundraiser
Presented by the Columbus Blues Alliance
The Columbus Blues Alliance presents Play It Forward, a scholarship fundraiser that will benefit students pursuing higher education in music. Featuring CBA hall of fame inductees Teeny Tucker and Shaun Booker singing with the 614Blues Band and a live auction with some wonderful items (Teeny’s amazing artwork among the items up for auction). The 614Blues Ed program is the catalyst for a continuing series of outstanding youth bands. This will be a unique opportunity to see some of the best Columbus youth musicians in the city, directed by Jeff McCargish (Fort Hayes Career Music program) playing with some of the best musicians who call Columbus home!
There is no cost for this event and it will follow our FREE Happening Hour show. Admission and seating will be first come first serve.
