This week MCLM hosted two events, the closing reception for The Get on Board exhibit and Nothing but the Chicago Style Blues. The turn out for the closing reception for the Get on Board exhibit was phenomenal! This event featured a panel discussion with Freedom Riders Robert Farell, Robert Singleton, Rita Matinson and Woodrow Coleman. The second event at MCLM this week was Nothing But the Chicago Style Blues. This event featured The Legendary Melvin Eddy Blues Band. Mr. Eddy sporadically comes out of retirement to perform, he was amazing! Along with this blues event MCLM sold food tickets as a fundraiser for the institution. A busy week, but I definitely learned a lot about how to manage multiple events in small amount of time.
