Corvallis Guitar Society Meeting @ Odd Fellows Hall
Apr 2 @ 7:00 pm – 9:00 pm

Corvallis Guitar Society

The goal of the Corvallis Guitar Society is to act as a catalyst to bring local guitarists out of the woodwork and provide an opportunity to perform and enjoy guitar music in a friendly and supportive atmosphere. The accent here is on participation and we hope people will want to participate in the open stage section also – no piece of music is too short or simple (though there is a five minute limit if we have a full sign-up sheet) and you are guaranteed a warm round of applause for showing us what you can do! We do have a limited number of open stage slots so be sure to sign up early at the front desk on the way in.

Our Mission

To promote classical and related guitar styles by providing a supportive performance environment for people of all ages and ability.

We seek to achieve this through a monthly meeting that provides an opportunity to discuss, listen to, and play solo guitar music including classical, flamenco, finger-style, jazz, as well as classical guitar ensemble styles.

CFS Annual Membership Meeting, Jam and Potluck @ First Alternative Co-op South Store
May 19 @ 5:00 pm – 7:00 pm

Annual Membership Meeting 2018

South Coop Meeting RoomThe Corvallis Folklore Society’s Annual Members’ Meeting will be on

Saturday, May 19th, 2018
starting at 5:00 pm

before the regular contra dance, at the First Alternative Co-op South Store meeting room at 1007 SE 3rd Street. It will replace the usual pre-Contra dance potluck dinner.

In the old CFS tradition we will combine a potluck dinner with an open jam session, so bring your instruments and/or voices along with a dish to share.  Bringing your own plates and utensils will help reduce landfill.

The purpose of the meeting is to provide CFS members an opportunity to talk with the current board, to vote for the 2018-19 board and, most importantly, to help support, expand and improve CFS activities.

The room will be open around 5:00 pm and the festivities will start as soon as people arrive.  The business meeting will begin at about 5:30. Members who don’t wish to eat or jam are encouraged to come just for the meeting.  The business meeting will end in time for contra folks to get to Saturday night’s dance at Gatton Hall.

Hope to see you there!
