I'm sure it comes as no surprise that we've suspended or postponed all COHJS events til we all get out the other side of this public health situation.
We hope to be able to run our usual 3 major pro shows at the Clintonville Woman's Club later this spring, perhaps stretching into early summer. But obviously that'll all depend on how things turn out.
We'll keep things up to date on www.COHJS.org, and we'll send out another email and newsletter as we get things back on track. If you have questions don't hesitate to email us.
In the meantime please do everything you can to support local musicians by buying their music on CDBaby where musicians keep a good share of the revenue, and support our venues and your local restaurants by ordering take-out when you can.
Please don't forget to support COHJS - help us get thru this too - by renewing or joining for as little as $20 ... see below ... and thanks for anything you can do.
