And from our friends at the Brownstown Fund for the Arts:

 We are presenting a “winter hootenanny” at 7 p.m. Friday, Feb. 10, at W. R. Ewing.The program of folk, country, and folk rock music will feature David Gohn of Bloomington, Curt Kovener of Crothersville, and Joe Persinger of rural Brownstown. The evening will end with a rousing audience participation sing-along.

The event is a fundraiser for the arts group which each year brings various events and activities to the community, including concerts ranging from classical to folk to jazz, art exhibits, and art classes for adults and children.

Admission is $15 per person; however, tables for eight are just $100 and may be reserved by contacting Ewing Uniques at 358-2666. Admission may be paid at the door on the night of the event. Those attending are encouraged to provide their own snacks and beverages.

Singer/songwriter David Gohn is a former Brownstown resident who has become a popular performer in the Bloomington area, where his sound has been described as “American roots music.”

Curt Kovener, who is editor and publisher of The Crothersville Times, has appeared in a number of Jackson County Community Theatre musical productions. At the Feb. 10 event he is expected to perform some classic country tunes as well as some humorous songs.

Joe Persinger’s part of the program will feature original songs as well as familiar folk tunes from the 1960’s and ’70s.
