ArtsConnect’s ArtsCalendar is a work in progress. Presently, we are working with a small group of arts organizations from across the Tri-Cities to develop the ArtsCalendar before we open up submissions from all arts organizations and we are not accepting direct submissions at this time. If your organization is interested in joining the ArtsCalendar in the future, please email your name, address, and a brief description of your organization to: [email protected]
This resource has been made possible through the financial support of ArtsConnect’s members. If you would like to support the further development, please consider becoming a member here: Membership
Crossroads Hospice Coffeehouse – The Tri-City Strummers and The Royal Aloha Monday Band
Friday, April 24 — The Tri-City Strummers and The Royal Aloha Monday Band
At 7:30pm — The Tri-City Strummers — We are expecting at least 18 ukulele players from – The Tri-City Strummers – on Friday night. They’ll be singing and strumming mostly Hawaiian songs. They are led by two accomplished volunteers, Margaret and Andrea, and supported by a talented volunteer bass player and Don Kellett on steel guitar. There will be three dancers from the Glen Pines Hula group, too! You will most likely want to be dancing and singing along!
At 8:50pm — The Royal Aloha Monday Band — With a love of Hawaiian music, The Royal Aloha Monday Band was born of necessity – for Canadian content for a Hawaiian music Co-op radio show. Tonight their full-flavoured Hawaiian music will carry you off to the sandy beaches, the birds singing, the sea breeze blowing, the hips swaying and the warmth and relaxation of the Hawaiian Islands. Aloha – with Don Kellett, Michael and Eleanor Dunn, Susan Vigneux, and Joe Bourchier. Expect Hula dancers and yes, you too, should wear an Hawaiian shirt or floral dress for the occasion.
Come and enjoy the music this season with us —
