The Live Stream Community Relief Concert Series is moving to Awbury Arboretum so we can accommodate a safely-distanced & masked live audience in the big tent in back of the Cope Mansion.The shows are a continuation of the Community Relief Concert Series, sponsored by Weavers Way Coop,which was originally a live-stream only series initiated by Barry Wahrhaftig of the Hot Club of Philadelphia.
The goal was to help musicians and non-players impacted by the Covid-19 shutdown. A portion of each show’s proceeds is sent to local charities, [including Philabundance & Jazz Bridge so far.
This week’s beneficiary will be Musicopia, a non-profit that collects and supplies musical instruments for students in under-served areas.
The shows will be on Sunday early evening 6:30-8:30, parking on site. Tickets are $20, available thru Awbury Arboretum’s site; https:// awbury.org/
