Appalachia in the Bluegrass series: Maizie Manna

Born in Kentucky, ended up everywhere. "I make art and I love my piano. Sometimes I share it."

Concerts presented as part of Appalachia in the Bluegrass are free and open to the public and begin weekly at noon on Fridays, in the Niles Gallery of the John Jacob Niles Center for American Music, located at the University of Kentucky’s Lucille C. Little Fine Arts and Design Library.

An annual series, Appalachia in the Bluegrass celebrates the old-time roots of American folk music, while simultaneously representing a variety of different musical expressions, featuring performances by noted Appalachian soloists, duos and groups. The Appalachia in the Bluegrass concert series is sponsored by the John Jacob Niles Center for American Music, the Appalachian Studies Program, and the Appalachian Center of the University of Kentucky.
