BRT Homecoming Concert and Silent Auction
With family and friends in town for Thanksgiving, Blackstone River Theatre's
7th annual fund-raiser features some of the best of Rhode Island's homegrown
talent as well as others who now live in the Ocean State. At 7:00 PM and during
intermission, Blackstone River Theatre will hold a silent auction featuring
CDs, jewelry, original artwork, Christmas items and gift certificates. There
will also be over 10 pieces of original artwork this year at our silent auction,
donated by artists who have exhibited in BRT's Art Gallery. 100% of the proceeds
from both the concert and the silent auction will go to support Blackstone
River Theatre's programming and operating expenses. Members of the band PENDRAGON
will act as hosts this evening and will perform a set of their Celtic-inspired
music. Featured performers include celebrated Irish singer-songwriter ROBBIE
O'CONNELL, the original music of singer-songwriters FUZEK-ROSSONI (John Fuzek
and Mary Ann Rossoni) and THE ATWATER-DONNELLY TRIO featuring Aubrey Atwater
and Elwood Donnelly joined by fiddler Cathy Clasper-Torch performing Appalachian
and Celtic-inspired folk music. DUKE ROBILLARD, MARTIN GROSSWENDT and BERTRAND
LAURENCE will all perform solo acoustic blues and BILL PETTERSON will also
be on hand to perform a set of original music.
