NIFPA Thursday February 9th 7:30

NIFPA is held at the Old Church Theatre
755 Harmston Ave, Courtenay, BC V9N 2X6

Please enter through the side door along the right side of the building.

Drop in admission is $2 for friends and family.
Performers do not need to pay if they are playing in that session, just tell the folks at the desk you are with FolkHarmonic.

Our session begins at 7:45, so please plan to be at the church by 7:30, so that we can warm up, tune up and make sure we have everything we need for our performance, and then be upstairs to support the other performers once the session starts.

If anyone knows someone that can film this discreetly for us that would be great (they get all funny about these things...) doesn't need to be pro, just something to remember it by!)
 

Serena Eades is the adjudicator this year. http://serenaeades.com/index.html

The plan is to go have a celebratory bevy, dessert and general good time at Corner Stone Cafe afterwards (where Zocalos used to be) 

Looking forward to this.

​ps.
If you need to contact me the day of my phone number is 1-250-208-6873, text or leave a message as I will be at the festival most of the day supporting other students and will have my ringer completely off. I will get back to you as soon as there is an appropriate moment.

    def: A group of people who want to do more than just jam on folk instruments. We’ll set up a groove and add easy parts, taught by ear and layered, to make epic sounds out of simple pieces. Immerse yourself in the world of harmonies, melodies, laughter and ensemble playing regardless of skill level.
