A Benefit Concert for the Shoreline Soup Kitchens & Pantries
8:00pm @ the Katherin Hepburn Cultural Arts Center
Old Saybrook, CT
A Night of Music and Entertainment at the Kate in Old Saybrook.
Hard Times & Hope: A tribute to the music of Woodie Guthrie & Pete Seeger & songs of the depression era in America.
Bands: Amalgamated Muck with Lauren Agnelli (grammy-nominated with a former band), Moving Target & Ragweed.
Last year we were able to raise enough from this effort to generate 100,000 meals in the shoreline area. This year, we hope to do as well or better!
Every cent generated at the concert will go directly to the Shoreline Soup Kitchens and Pantries - All performers have donated their time and talents and the venue has been donated by Acoustic Music.Org and Wyeth Architects LLC. Think of it: For the price of one evening of terrific entertainment, you can have a distinct and measurable positive impact on the lives of many in the shoreline area.
Tickets will be avalible at the Kate box office in November: (860) 510-0453 and (877) 503-1286 or on-line: Box Office
