MUSIC BC CHARITABLE FOUNDATION – FIRST ANNUAL DINNER & AUCTION

Sunday, May 16th 5:30 @ Seasons in the Park, Vancouver
Hosted by Red Robinson
The Music BC Charitable Foundation is proud to announce its first annual charity fundraiser!
This Gala dinner is being held at Seasons in the Park in beautiful Queen Elizabeth Park on Sunday, May 16th at 5:30pm. For the ticket price of $75, guests will have a choice of three course meals, including either Chicken or Salmon (Vegetarian available upon request). There will be door prizes, a 50/50 draw and silent and live auctions with great items including artist signed guitars and concert and sports tickets. There will also be some surprise musical performances. It is a great opportunity to get out, support a great cause, have a wonderful meal, and network with others who are interested in supporting musical education in the province.
The Music BC Charitable Foundation is dedicated to helping British Columbia’s youth gain the opportunity to experience all the benefits of a musical education. Music can change lives by providing a reason to go to school. Music focuses young minds and provides a lifetime of passion and joy.
The Burt Harris Memorial Scholarship has provided scholarships to music students, allowing them to pursue private musical instruction or post-secondary education. Also, through the contributions of our donors and generous industry support, the Adopt an Instrument Program has provided musical instruments to schools within the province so that schools can continue to provide strong musical education programs for their students.
As a means to raise funds and continue with these programs, the Music BC Charitable Foundation is holding its First Annual Charity Fundraiser.
Tickets are available through Music BC, payable by credit, debit, or cheque. Call us at (604) 873-1914 or email requests to info@musicbc.org.
