Civil rights sit-ins. Bell-bottoms. Anti-war marches. Student Power. Afros. Mini-skirts. Hippies. Riots. Space flights. Political assassinations. The generation gap. Those hallmarks of the turbulent 1960’s will be rekindled Friday October 18 at this year’s annual “Spirit of the ‘60’s Coffeehouse”:
Friday Oct. 18 at 7:30 p.m.
King Avenue Methodist Church
299 W. King at Neil in Columbus 43201
Bill Cohen and friends will lead a candlelit, musical, year-by-year journey through the era, with live and familiar 1960’s folksongs, “news reports” of sixties happenings, displays of anti-war buttons and posters, and far-out sixties fashions. Plus, Bill will also challenge the audience with sixties trivia questions.
Special guest performers – Paisha Thomas, Joanne Blum, and Joe Lambert -- will be on hand to add beautiful vocal melodies, harmonies, and extra energy. And Ann Fisher will add elegant touches on her flute. Far-out !!!!
Proceeds from the suggested $15 donations (at the door) will go to the Mid-Ohio Food Collective. Free parking is also available in the lots just South and West of the church. The show begins at 7:30 p.m. in the church basement, but get there early for a good seat.
The program is suitable for ADULTS and MATURE TEENS.
It’s the 38th year of sixties coffeehouses for Bill. He’s performed the show more than a hundred times now at colleges, churches, synagogues, conferences, high schools, and middle schools across Ohio and beyond.
