“A Night of Mandolin Music: Jim Richter Mandolin Camp Faculty Concert” celebrates mandolin music across its spectrum—orchestral, folk, jazz, bluegrass, rock, and blues. The Jim Richter Mandolin Camp for the Rest of Us is in its 12th year and has been a center of mandolin instruction based in Bloomington, Indiana since 2011. This concert features camp faculty: Don Julin (Billy Strings; writer of Mandolins for Dummies), Sharon Gilchrist (Tony Rice; Peter Rowan, John Reischman), Laurelyn Dossett (Rhiannon Giddens; Levon Helm), and Jim Richter (blues/rock mandolin educator; Gordon Bonham). Joining as special guests are Gordon Bonham, the Banister Bluegrass Band, the Columbus Mandolin Orchestra, and others. This free event is sponsored by the Jim Richter Mandolin Camp, WFHB radio, the Grant Street Inn, and Kimble Mandolins.
