'Coffeehouse' music event set

Cameron County Arts will sponsor "An Evening with Father Paul and Friends" at 6:30 Sunday, March 18.

It's a coffeehouse-style music presentation with Father Paul Siebert and others, to be held at St. Marks O'Connell Hall. Admission is by donation. Refreshments will be available.

Fr. Siebert will bring together a group of his long-time musical friends to perform the music of James Taylor, Cat Stevens, the Beatles and favorites from that era. Performing in the vocally-rich performance will be Frank Feroz, bass; Ron Feroz, guitar, piano; Dan Feroz, percussion; Dave Foote, drums; and Fr. Siebert, guitar.

"Ron, Dave and I played in the same band when we were in college," Fr. Siebert noted. "Dan is a best friend from high school and we also played to- gether in different bands."

Also joining in will be Betty and Ivan Franceus, as well as Lauree and Jeff Borden. Tom Cleary and Pat Rodgers will lead a sing-along of Irish melodies to stretch St. Patrick's Day into extra innings.

Donations will be shared by Cameron County Arts and the Cameron County Ministerial Association Emergency Fund.

Cameron County Arts also continues planning for the fifth annual Art Fest, to be held June 30 on Broad Street in Emporium. Artists and craftsmen are already reserving space.
