TIFTON — Two critically-acclaimed guitarists will perform as part of the First Tuesday Concert Series at 7 p.m. on Feb. 1 at Abraham Baldwin Agricultural College.
Francois Fowler and Christopher Mrofchak will perform a concert filled with pieces from 250 years of global music history in ABAC’s Howard Auditorium.
The duo’s musical performances combine the strengths of professor and former student. Fowler teaches at Youngstown State University in Ohio. Mrofchak is based out of Tallahassee, Fla.
Susan Roe, head of the ABAC Fine Arts Department, created the First Tuesday Concert Series in 2002, and the tradition continues to provide a venue to the arts for the Tifton community. There is no charge for admission.
Next up in the First Tuesday series is the Oconee Chamber Players on March 1, followed by ABAC’s Broadway Stars on April 5.
