Joe Hill Coffee House is cancelled again this month for the safety and wellbeing of everyone!

While you are safe in your homes and practicing your instruments and voice, consider participating in Joe Hill once we are back in action!

Joe Hill Coffee House is a great place for performers young and old, polished or learning, to play for the best audience in the Kootenays.  If you have hankering for a chance to practice your chops in a laid-back venue, we would love to have you come and perform.  (No audition; everyone gets their 15 minutes of fame, just sign up.)

Connect with Les Carter at 250-362-5677, or les@rosslandrange.org to sign up. Thanks!
