Mark your calendar for March 16. In February of 1993, Ellen Gawler was a member of “Trillium”,
a trio that opened the very first “UU Coffeehouse”. It is only fitting that Ellen returns to headline the
rebirth of this popular music venue, which closed in December 2005.
Ellen and husband John, along with one or more of their
three talented children will bring fiddles, banjos and harmonies to the stage
as we celebrate this long overdue return. Mark your calendar for Saturday, March 16. 7:00 p.m. Light refreshments served.
