Hello.
This is the home
page for Michael Ludgate and The Canaan Institute. I am a musician,
photographer
 and
folk music publicist. Many of you
ask the
significance of the name Canaan Institute. We needed a virtual
space to provide hosting for the music, outdoor and environmental
work we do for the Ithaca and surrounding community. The word
Canaan
has historical significance for the neighborhood we live in, but no
religious affiliation for us. We
host regular acoustic music and aerobic outdoor events. We also
maintain several e-newletters and
Facebook groups and pages. Please email me
if
you have
questions or if you were looking for other web areas of mine: music
jams, hike, bike and ski information. If you need an acoustic
music gig listed. Send it to me plain text via email [ michael at
canaaninstitute dot org ]
and I'll list it on the calendar and appropriate newsletters. Thanks!
-Mike :-)About the advertisements: It costs many dollars to run a website of this size plus all the listerves and so forth. So, if you see something you like, support those vendors. If you find anything offensive, email me the URL, I can block it.
