Susan's Fancy Schmancy Music Night

Come get your culture on! I'm excited to host my first Groupmuse event.

This event will include Jerimiah Owens on piano and Anton Smirnov on violin (program below). These two young, dynamic musicians are working hard at their craft. Plan to show them some monetary love and support the arts!

IMPORTANT! READ THIS!
-- Doors open at 7pm and the music will start at 7:30.
-- Please bring a bottle or nibble to share, if you are so inclined. (If you bring red wine, better bring a sippy cup, too. No stains!)
-- To maximize seating, much of it will be on the floor. If you have mobility issues (that I don't already know about), let me know and I'll save you a real seat.
-- ALLERGY ALERT! My animals will be locked away for the night, but I do have a dog and two cats.

Final thought: Please take the RSVP seriously so we don't end up with empty slots that someone else might have wanted. Cool? I'm capping attendance at 35.

I really think this is going to be a wonderful evening of great music and nice humans. I hope to see you there!

JERIMIAH OWENS - Concert pianist and vocalist Jerimiah Owens has quickly gained much respect in the arts community in both Denver and New York City.
