July 24 coffeehouse at First Mennonite includes music, poetry, dinner
A coffeehouse variety show takes place from 4:30-7:30 p.m., on Sunday, July 24, First Mennonite Church Fellowship Hall.
This “BlauRock Café” will include poetry, music, humor and magic, plus a summer meal featuring local sweet corn.
Most of the performers are local, but we will also feature a guest trio of Ethan Setiawan, Sadie Gustafson-Zook and Jacob Warren.
Ethan has performed on NPR’s A Prairie Home Companion and won the 2014 National Mandolin Championship. Sadie has performed across the United States and Europe for over 15 years and in 2010 released her first album, Mélange. Jacob is studying classical performance at the University of Michigan, and has toured internationally with the National Youth Orchestra of the USA.
The trio will also perform Saturday, July 23, at 9 p.m. at the Mustard Seed Café and at First Mennonite Church, Sunday, July 24, at 10:30 am.
Dinner will be made by Lucas Harnish (with family and friends) to help raise money for his year of Mennonite Voluntary Service starting in the fall. Donations for the food will go to MVS. The menu will be brats (with hot dog and veggie burger options) Suter's corn, chips, watermelon and cookies.
