There aren’t many organizations in Chicago that can lay claim to being a historic treasure and vibrant cultural magnet for local communities. The Old Town School of Folk Music, a half century old and counting, definitely fits that description. From the old timers like Odetta and John Prine who gigged there back in the day to the globally inspired diversity of musical instruction and performance that prevails today, the OTSFM is one place locals have always rooted for.
Speaking of roots, I-GO will once again have a booth at OTSFM’s annual Folk & Roots Festival this Saturday and Sunday, July 10-11. This is one of our fave summer fests — so laid-back, with such a unique musical lineup — and we’ll be celebrating by dishing out $25 discount I-GO memberships to fest goers.
If you’re in the Lincoln Square neighborhood, stop by, get your world-music groove on, and get on-board with huge savings at I-GO!
