An affiliated with the Blues foundation
Blues Society KBA: Recipient of the "Keeping The Blues Alive
Award", in 2010, for the BEST ORGANIZATION Since it was founded in
1993, the Connecticut Blues Society has been at the forefront of all
blues events and programs in the Nutmeg state. Though most of its
events are music related - supporting weekly jams at a variety of
Connecticut blues clubs, sponsoring many blues festivals and events,
and running the most extensive IBC Band and Solo/Duo competitions -
the CTBS is also very active in many service programs. In the past,
it has run benefits for the March of Dimes. It also holds two events
each year raising funds with the local Hannon-Hatch VFW Post. In
addition to its education outreach programs, CTBS also assists with
monthly concerts at the Connecticut Veterans Home and Hospital.
Because this Society covers an entire state, it offers a model of
music, history and community service for any other affiliated
society. |
