Grant from Community Foundation provides Glimmerglass opportunity

With the support of a grant from The Community Foundation of Herkimer and Oneida Counties, Inc., residents of Herkimer and Oneida Counties will have the opportunity to attend this summer’s Glimmerglass Festival in Cooperstown at a reduced rate.

Residents of both counties who have never attended a Glimmerglass performance, or have not been since 2006, can attend a production for just $12. The remainder of the ticket cost is subsidized by The Community Foundation grant.

The Glimmerglass Festival runs through August 23, with many matinee and early afternoon offerings.

This year’s productions are Carmen, Medea, Annie Get Your Gun and the double bill of A Blizzard On Marblehead Neck and Later the Same Evening.

Residents who meet the criteria for the special ticket rate should call the Glimmerglass Box Office at (607) 547-2255 and mention HOCF to receive the special offer. Visit www.glimmerglass.org for details. See related story page 11.
