OPALGA Coffeehouse Returns!
The OPALGA coffeehouse is again open for business beginning Friday, September 19, at 7:00 p.m. The coffeehouse will be held on the third Friday of each month in various locations in the Oak Park area. Our coffeehouse performance on Friday, September 19, will be held at the New Spirit Community Church, 542 S. Scoville, Oak Park. New Spirit has a great performance area that will provide ample space for the performers and for attendees to socialize before and after the event.
The coffeehouse is a free event, but tips for the performers are accepted. We are working on our line-up of entertainers as we go to press, so please visit the calendar page on the OPALGA Web site (http://www.opalga.org) for an updated list of performers. We are very excited about our upcoming performers, and we hope that you’ll join us for these upcoming events!
If you are a performer, or if you know someone who wants to perform, please call The OPALGA Center at 708-848-0273, or send and e-mail to our current coffeehouse coordinator, Pocha Carter, at jaiharu@gmail.com. Let us know—we are inclusive of all artists/performers! We also want to thank the Oak Park Area Arts Council and the Community Bank of Oak Park-River Forest for their generous support of the OPALGA coffeehouses.
