For Immediate Release

³Blues, Brews, and BBQ² Fundraiser at the National Museum of Dance
On Friday July 27 from 8pm to midnight the National Museum of Dance¹s New
Action Committee will host a fundraiser called Blues, Brews, and BBQ. The
evening will include music from three different blues artists. Tristan Chase
is a Texas native/NYC based artist that combines elements of blues, folk,
and soul. Chase presents a vintage sound with a sexy modern touch, a
retro-fusion of sorts. Saratoga¹s own Blues Noir is one of the finest
original blues bands in the Northeast U.S. having played with the likes of
Pintop Perkins and at venues such as the original Nectar¹s and the
Cooperstown Blues Train. Low N¹ Lonesome, two Fingerstyle/Acoustic Blues
guitar players and songwriters, will perform top-notch originals, as well as
Blues-based classics.
 
There will be a craft beer tastings sponsored by the Olde Saratoga Brewery
as well as a bourbon whiskey tasting organized by D¹Andrea¹s Liquor. The
event also includes open bar of beer and wine. While enjoying the
outstanding music selection, guests will dine on the area¹s favorite
barbecue: PJ¹s Bar-B-Q-S-A.
 
A classic photo booth provided by Saratoga Photobooth Company as well as
other amusements will be on hand. Admission is $55 in advance, $65 at the
door, and $50 for museum members. Tickets are available by phone
(518-584-2225 ext. 3005) or the Museum¹s website, www.dancemuseum.org
<http://www.dancemuseum.org> . This is a 21+ event.
 

The National Museum of Dance¹s New Action Committee put the evening
together. The committee is a group of up and coming community members that
are working to build a stronger relationship between the museum and the 25 ­
40 year-old age group in the Capital Region. The proceeds raised will be
used to fund K-12 arts programming at the Museum as organized by the New
Action Committee for the following year.

 

Event Chair, Thomas Dragonette, said, ³We want to provide fun events for
young people while helping the Museum grow. We keep our ticket price low so
you can treat yourself to dinner, drinks, AND great entertainment, but also
give back at the same time.²
