Cultural Events  

Faculty Mentoring Program offers tickets for cultural events at the California Center for the Arts, Escondido. Mentor-Protégé pairs are invited to request up to two tickets for particular performances. Please see Sonia Perez (fmp@csusm.edu) for available tickets.

Performance: An Irish Hooley with Slugger O’ Toole
Date: Friday, March 15, 2013, at 7:30 p.m.
Location: California Center for the Arts, Escondido, Center Theater
                                                                                                     
It just wouldn’t be St. Patrick’s Day without honoring the great tradition and the mighty joy of being Irish. Slugger O'Toole concoct a heady brew of foot-stomping pub songs, heart-rending ballads and deft instrumentals. With traditional instrumentation including fiddle, button accordion, mandolin, banjo, bodhran, pennywhistle, flute and guitars, the band thrills audiences with its brilliant renditions of the Irish classics, true to the Celtic core.

• We have 5 tickets left from the past cultural event that was cancelled. The good news for us is that we can use our tickets as an exchange for different shows. Please visit this link and check out all the different organizations and performances http://www.orchestranova.org/arts_exchange_program.shtml and let me know if you are interested in tickets.
