A Celebration of Life for Michael McLaughlin, Sunday, July 23, 2023

Last year, longtime South Bay Folkie, Mike McLaughlin, unexpectedly passed away. Many of you knew Mike as an accomplished illustrator who was very generous with his time and talent to South Bay Folks and others. Mike designed the Vasona Vibrations Concert Series logo, the "basket of instruments" icon for SBF picnic-jams, the iconic logo for the Fiddling Cricket Concerts and so much more. Mike was also well-known for his enduring passion and support for folk music. He possessed an impressive, encyclopedic knowledge of the subject.

In part because of COVID-19, a Celebration of Life for Mike was postponed until this summer and the family wants to get in touch with Mike's many South Bay friends, and has asked us to help in that effort:

A Celebration of Life for Michael McLaughlin
Sunday, July 23, 2023
