    Hello.

    I am Outreach Coordinator for a local non-profit. I am wondering if you allow non-profits to have a small table at the Thursday night JAzz Series? Bryn Mawr Twilight Series allows us to have a table, and it seems to generatae alot of interest and I feel this Jazz Series would also peak interest.
    Who would I speak to/ with about this opportunity?

    thank you
