The Eleventh Annual Geneseo Summer Concert Series is being presented to provide musical entertainment to the Geneseo Community at no cost to those attending. We are building on the success of past seasons, which contributed to the lifestyle of our community, as well as bringing people to our downtown area during a traditionally quiet time of the year. The series will begin on Friday June 21st, 2019 in the Village Park from 7 – 9 PM. The remaining concerts will be on consecutive Fridays, with the final concert on August 30th. Each performance will be from 7-9 PM in the Village Park. Food & Drinks from the Café Shiloh are available in the Park. New restrooms in the park are open.
While songs like “Giddy Up” carry a jug band sensibility of the 60’s, Bunce isn’t afraid to shove aside the gentle mandolins for some Alman Brothers southern blues guitar. It’s a mission statement when Bunce sings, “Wide open spaces get wider each day.” Bunce has a good woman. ” She trims my beard and keeps my tractor clean.” But times are otherwise tough in his rural landscape. ” We ate yesterdays lunch, a couple weeks ago,” he moans. At lest he has the distraction of characters prone to attention getting antics : “Get off the table Mable, you ain’t the reason that we’re here.”
This class will explore a variety of creative methods to open doors to the creative writing process. Participants will engage in guided meditation, simple mask making, gentle movement and exploratory writing. Dress comfortably, bring your journal, favorite writing tools and your curiosity! This program is geared toward adults. Space is limited. Registration is required.
