At 7:30pm, we will be hosting a silent auction and concert upstairs in the Hotel Commonwealth ballroom. Guitar companies from around the U.S. have sent us guitars, strings, straps, t-shirts, picks, guitar pedals, and concert tickets to raffle and auction off.
At 8:00pm, we will be hosting Ricky "King" Russell and the Cadillac Horns who will play a 2-hour concert for us.
***100% of the proceeds from the auction + concert will go to benefit these two music non-profit organizations:***
The Community Music Center of Boston and the Keeping the Blues Alive foundation.
As someone who has always had a passion for the arts and music, and who knows how important it is for arts and music to be in schools, I applaud any organization whose mission is to to provide these opportunities for our schools. We hope you feel the same way and will consider joining us for this event.
