The Martin Family Band will join us at Bucks for an evening of Celtic music, song and dance that will take place Saturday, Oct. 10 at 7 p.m. in the Gateway Auditorium on the Newtown campus.
Tickets for this event are $15 each regular admission for adults, seniors, faculty and staff. Thanks to a special arrangement with CCC Celt you need to explain what this is the first time you refer to it in the story, otherwise people will be confused. , children, 12 and under will be admitted at no charge.
A limited number of free tickets are available at the Student Life Information Center for Bucks students. These free tickets are available on a first-come, first-served basis.
This event is a co-production from The Office of Cultural and Community Programming and a local organization called CCC Celt.
The CCC Celt’s primary mission is the “care and feeding” of the Celtic Library, which was started in 1990, and is more like a collection than a library. It consists of books, CDs, DVDs, video and audio books, house primarily in the Bucks library.
All the proceeds from this event will go directly to benefit Bucks library and the students.
Jonathan Lee, the director of the Cultural and Community Programs at Bucks, is working on this unique event.
Lee said, “Tom Slattery, the director of CCC Celt, has been my partner in crime for almost 15 years now as we bring this wonderful show to the Gateway stage.”
The CCC Celt supports all aspects of the Celtic culture and has donated several trophies to Irish Feis and Scottish dance champions.
They also helped the BCCC student which bucks student? attend an international writing class in Galway, and in May 2009, awarded their sixth scholarship to the college.
The audience will be invited back after the show to meet the performers and have complementary spread of Celtic food and beverages.
Some students said they hadn’t heard about the event.
Anthony Spina, 21, a general liberal arts student from Levittown said, “To be honest, that does not really sound like my thing, but i bet some people would be really into stuff like that!”
Spina added, “I feel like it was not advertised enough, I did not even hear about it until you said something to me.”
Teshaun Glenn, 19, a computer science major from Yardley said, “It sounds very interesting. I have always found dancing fun, it would be something I would consider going to with some friends.”
Lee is looking for volunteers to work the event, including ushers, box office personnel, backstage catering assistance and more.
Volunteers are invited to attend the performance after show duties are done and will receive an additional free ticket for a friend.
