Nouveau: Save the Music

Nouveau, less like a field trip, more like a night out

Erie, PA, February 21, 2010 --(PR.com)-- Instrument Drive to benefit local refugee musicians

The Erie Art Museum’s newest party series for 20-40 somethings, Nouveau, is saving local music one musician at a time at its appropriately themed Save the Music party on Friday, Feb. 26 from 6-8:30 p.m. at the Erie Art Museum, 411 State Street.

“Bring your playable instrument – guitar, drum kit, horn (even your tambourine) for donation. We’ve teamed up with local refugee relocation agencies and plan to donate the instruments to local refugee musicians, young and old, who have fled their country and left their instruments behind,” said event organizer Tammy Roche.

Rock your own bottle-cap tambourine and sit in on a music, song and story circle. Erie’s own theHeliotropes leads the circle.

Making It Better: Folk Arts in Pennsylvania Today is on view in the Main Gallery, featuring many works by local refugee artists and musicians.

Tasty nibblers, a donation bar and a dose of new – Nouveau, less like a field trip, more like a night out.

The party continues at Molly Brannigans with specials exclusively for Nouveau attendees.

Free for Erie Art Museum members & those who donate a playable instrument; $8 for non-members. Young Erie Professionals members receive a $2 off.

Nouveau is sponsored by the Erie Times News, Iadeluca Chiropractic, Molly Brannigans, Erie Beer, Bob FM, Francis Ford Coppola Wine, Pinnacle Vodka and the Erie Art Museum.

For more information, visit online at www.erieartmuseum.org or call (814) 459-5477.

Nouveau is open to those 21 & older.
