> Celebrating 10 years as the area’s only provider of free, integrated medical services to the uninsured and underinsured, the Ithaca Health Alliance invites community residents to celebrate its flagship program, the Ithaca Free Clinic. Family-oriented festivities are scheduled from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. Wednesday, August 17, at the Clinic’s offices at 521 West Seneca Street in Ithaca.
>
> The celebration will highlight the close relationship between the agency and its more than 120 volunteers, featuring live music, a children’s tent with games and activities, meet-the-provider stations, clinic tours, refreshments, and a special birthday cake.
>
> Ithaca Health Alliance Executive Director Norb McCloskey said: “The Clinic’s past and ongoing success is made possible by our dedicated volunteers and community support. Thousands of members of our community have found a pathway to health as a result of the services provided by the Free Clinic. There is much to celebrate and we hope you will come and join in the festivities.”
>
> Donating their musical talents for the anniversary celebration are Mel & Sol and Five2, with sound equipment and engineering provided by Ithaca Underground.
>
> The repertoire of Mel & Sol (David Frumkin and Will Fudeman on fiddle, mandolin and guitar) ranges from Yiddish and Balkan dance tunes to Gershwin, Harold Arlen, Lennon/McCartney, and the tango. Five2 is a striking female vocal trio with the lush, three-part harmonies of Uniit Carruyo, Charisse Lucente, and Yvette Lucente. Ithaca Underground is an all-volunteer 501(c)(3) non-profit organization whose goal is to nurture a sustainable, all-ages (especially youth) supportive environment where music and art outside the mainstream is encouraged and able to flourish.
>
> The Ithaca Health Alliance, founded in 1997, facilitates access to health care for all, with a focus on the needs of the uninsured. The agency operates three programs: the Ithaca Free Clinic, the Ithaca Health Fund, and Community Health Education.
