The new Performing Arts Center at Western Illinois opens up on September the 16th with Chicken Wire Empire, a truly exceptional bluegrass band. I co-produced the showcase room at the Midwest Arts Expo where these folks were first seen by the Goldfarb staff. THEY ARE INCREDIBLE! Not only are they excellent musicians, they are also outstanding entertainers as well. This will be a great way to kick off the new Goldfarb Center for the Arts. Don't miss this one! It will be special.
