First Presbyterian Church of Johnson City would like to invite you to an extraordinary event: A Free Concert for Johnson City on Sunday, September 27th featuring Brother Sun. Fusing folk, Americana, blues, pop, jazz, rock, and a cappella singing, Brother Sun is an explosion of musical diversity and harmony, in the finest of male singing traditions.
After viewing the February 10, 2015 Press and Sun Bulletin article, Johnson City and Binghamton in Top 10 Most Dangerous Places in NY, the congregation decided to raise hope and fellowship within our community. Brother Sun compositions promote love, social justice, and faith in humanity, “where unsung heroes struggle and sometimes win the daily battles of life and love.” The event is totally free, so please invite family, co-workers, and friends.
First Presbyterian Church of Johnson City is covering the first $500 of the $2500 cost of the event. We are asking Johnson City business owners to contribute a $500 match to offset expenses in exchange for a placard demonstrating your donation in support of the Johnson City community.
If you are able to contribute to this event in any way, please contact Diane Olmstead immediately at 759-0467.
The following sponsorships are also available:
$400 Advertising in television, radio, and print media
$300 Lodging for the three musicians
$200 Printing of posters and flyers for distribution
$100 A meal for performers and workers the day of the event
We hope you will join us in spirit and in person for the this wonderful opportunity to deliver a message to those residing and working in the Johnson City and Binghamton area that we are still a neighborhood of caring people.
