Since 1964, the Queen City Balladeers have sponsored and run the Leo Coffeehouse, showcasing some of the best folk and acoustic music in the Tri-State, as well as nationally-known performers from all over the country. Leo Coffeehouse, originally held on the University of Cincinnati campus, is now held at the Founder's Hall of the Zion United Church of Christ in Norwood [Directions to Leo Coffeehouse].
The Coffeehouse is held each Sunday of the month, September through May, from 7-9pm. There is usually ample parking in the lot next to the church. (Artists: if you are interested in playing at Leo [click here for info]).
