FARMINGTON — The University of Maine Farmington is set to host a free “Get Ready to Vote” concert at 5:30 p.m. Thursday, Sept. 26, on the Emery Community Arts Center lawn on Main Street.
Those who haven’t yet registered to vote can do so at the concert. Ruth Hill, 2017 grand prize winner of the Great American Song Contest, is the opening act. She’ll be followed by the Chicken Street Band (Chase Winn, Brian Wright Jr., and Chelsea Rae), a trio that sometimes opens for the Mallett Brothers Band.
Between music sets there will be a few words from UMF Student Senate President Connor Malone, UMF President Joe McDonnell, and Gov. Janet Mills.
To register at the concert, people should bring official identification like a driver’s license or Maine State ID. In case of rain or inclement weather, the concert will move inside.
