Musicians will donate their time and talent, but be reimbursed for a meal  
and travel.
 
We are successfully seeking corporate and commercial gifts to cover  expenses.
 
The college has donated the state-of-the-art auditorium which holds 1000  
seats for the cause and will be helping us by listing the event soon on their  
website:

tickets can be ordered by calling 585-293-2548 or contacting:

Any OKOM lovers in the area in early November should really love this  
concert, and all the proceeds and gifts (exceeding expenses) will be donated to  the 
Jazz Foundation of America's New Orleans Musician Clinic.  We're trying  our 
best to fill the house. The description of JFA agency and fund is  at:

Tickets will be available at the Roberts CLC Boxoffice, from the Flower  City 
Jazz Society at the contact information above, and from each of the band  
leaders if you know them.
 
People can also order tickets directly from me by sending an email to  
establish communications.
