Jill Foley Violinst at Praire Meadows

The library, as part of our Books on Wheels program, had Violinist Jill Foley play at Prairie Meadows today. The residents thoroughly enjoyed her performance of Christmas songs. Her daughter Sydney played a few songs with her mother and her sister Kayleigh picked up her toy violin to try to play along with them. We felt very privileged to have Jill and her children take time to entertain all of us.

Jill and her family are new residents to our area and currently live in Manorville. She started playing the violin at nine years old and has played for the past twenty four years. Jill has played with the Peoria Symphony and has a Masters in Suzuki Violin Instruction. She is available for lessons, weddings, and special occasion and you can contact her at 507-635-3437 or fiddlejill@yahoo.com.

I took pictures of the residents, Jill and her children.
