Arts & Entertainment Concert on the square in downtown Franklin this Sunday, September 23

On Sunday, Sept. 23, at 4 p.m., the Arts Council presents a double-bill concert featuring humorist/vocalist Cindy Miles and The McChoir Sisters, on the Town Square Gazebo in downtown Franklin.

Versatile musician and laughter therapist Cindy Miles blends rib-tickling commentary and lighthearted music to engage, involve and delight audience members, with memorable renditions of “Just A Bowl Of Butterbeans” and “Will The Turtle Be Unbroken.” The award-winning McChoir Sisters Trio, comprised of Margie Kellam, Kathy Kuhlman and Cathy Sill, perform Big Band Era and classic pop standards like “Mr. Sandman” and “Lollipop,” in Andrews Sisters-style precision harmonies.

The gazebo is on the corner of Main and Iotla Streets, across from the Macon County Courthouse. Attendees should bring a lawn chair. In case of rain, the program will be rescheduled.

This event is sponsored by the Arts Council of Macon County, with support from the Grassroots Arts Program of the North Carolina Arts Council, a division of the Department of Cultural Resources. It is the second of a series of four Sundays on the Square; the next installment is an old-time Sacred Music sing-along Sunday, Sept. 30. For more information contact the Arts Council, www.artscouncilofmacon.org or (828)524-7683.
