Arts Council Fundraiser Sun., May 20
5/20/2012

Bring the whole family to Owego on Sun., May 20 at 3:00 pm for “Seasons in the Glen,” a wonderful musical production by Owego native Chuck Knauf. It will be held at the First Presbyterian Union Church, corner of North Avenue and Temple Street.

“Seasons in the Glen” was inspired by Knauf’s childhood experiences growing up in Owego and spending countless hours in Pumpelly’s Glen. The Tri-Cities Opera Company has staged a new production of the play, complete with new costumes and sets. It is an offering in their Opera-Go-Round Program, which brings musical experiences to schools throughout upstate New York and northeastern Pennsylvania. This interactive musical includes audience participation and will appeal to adults and children alike.

Through the generosity of Knauf and the Tri-Cities Opera Company, this event is a benefit fundraiser for the Tioga County Council on the Arts. All funds raised will be used by the Arts Council towards renovating its historic flood-damaged building. Suggested donation at the door is $10 per person or $15 for the whole family. A light reception at the church will follow the performance.
