Water for Life Benefit Concert, Burnaby April 7
Friday, April 1st, 2011The Water for Life benefit concert, coming up soon on Thursday April 7, will be a celebration of water, rivers and the natural world while also focusing on the importance of water and the need to be good water stewards wherever we might live.
Hosted by Global TV news anchor Jill Crop and organized by the Rivers Institute at BCIT, the event will take place at the Michael J Fox Theater in Burnaby starting at 7:30 PM. It combines a striking mix of inspirational stories, great imagery and dazzling music, all focused on rivers, water and the natural world.
The event features stories and images from renowned river advocate, Mark Angelo, and the amazing folk pop, (and environmentally-themed) music of Holly Arntzen and Kevin Wright, backed by 160 singers form Brentwood Park.
Tickets are $35 and benefit the work of the Nature Trust of BC along the Heart of the Fraser as well as the international water relief efforts of WaterCan.

Any remaining tickets will be available at the door. See the event website.
It promises to be a great evening in support of an important cause. The concert will also air as a Global TV special in June.
