  That sounds like  a good idea, Sue, for our Musical Mixer.

    If we still need someone for entertainment (piano/vocal) I have a friend who will be there that I think I can strong arm. You may have met him, Terry Olandes, new president of the Greater Cincinnati chapter. I have already talked with him and he sounded positive.

    Additionally, Carla Ruschival has cautioned on another list that bookings of this sort can carry a range of high costs.

      Hello John,

      My response, based on my past 12 years of working with AAVL entertainment programs is that this is probably more appealing to a younger population.  Our programs which have been most popular have consisted of an emphasis on more old time music whith which folks could sing along.  This entertainment program would be more appropriate for FIA.

        Thought I'd pass this along in case this might be of interest for planning purposes.

        My name is Toby Singer.  I'm writing to you from Visionary Media, a non-profit, 501(c)(3) arts organization dedicated to providing opportunity to blind and visually-impaired people in music, media and advertising.

        I'm looking to get in touch with the member of your organization who books entertainment for special events.  I'm in the process of booking performances for our world-class visually-impaired musical artists.  They play music ranging from salsa to R&B, from stunning jazz piano and blues guitar to top-notch covers.  Each provides a unique, socially-conscious musical experience.

        Please visit www.visionarymedialive.com and take a listen to these amazing, talented people.  Can you help put me in touch with the person who does your special events booking?

        Thanks so much!

        Toby
