“Son of” The GROOVACIOUS WEEKLY EMAIL BLAST!
News in our world of Music and Art and calendar for
The week of Monday, October 19, 2015

From the desk of Tim Cretsinger
Groovacious – 195 W 650 S, # 2 in Cedar City, Utah 84720

For non-art and music related events go to www.VisitCedarCity.com and click on “Events”. A big thanks to Amber Bennett for putting that calendar together1

Seems as though folks are finding us at our new location. It’s great to see so many familiar faces;  and in a different place! It’s a little surreal! If you are one who still has not seen our new home yet; come on in – we love it and hope you’ll enjoy it just as much as the old spot. The above address is our mailing address and although it is our actual address, the store looks like it is really on 600 S. We are just west of Top Spot and right next to Parts Plus. It’s a very cozy spot compared to our old store -it’s smaller, but it’s still Groovacious!!

If you have an event you’d like to get published, email me and I’ll make sure to get it on this list. If you don’t let me know, I can’t add it.
