LEWISTON — The public is invited to meet Jon “Bowzer” Bauman at a free event at 2 p.m. Tuesday, Jan. 17, at The Dolard & Priscilla Gendron Franco Center, 46 Cedar St.

Bauman is an American musician best known as a member of the band Sha Na Na, and a game show host and celebrity guest in the 1970s and ‘80s. His popular Sha Na Na character, “Bowzer,” was a gangly, slender-armed greaser in a muscle shirt.

Bauman is co-founder of Senior Votes Count. He will be in Maine with Social Security Works to present a message titled “Hands Off Medicare.” He will be joined by Alex Lawson, executive director of Social Security Works.

All are welcome to attend the brief talk in Heritage Hall and stay for photographs with Bauman.
