Benefit Concert featuring Casa de Venezuela and Hill School A Cappella Groups

Join us Sunday, March 21 when Veninos, a charity dedicated to improving the lives of street and shanty town children in urban Venezuela, and Camphill Village Kimberton Hills join hands and present a benefit concert in Rose Hall at 2 p.m.

Performing will be Casa de Venezuela Music Ensemble (pictured at left) and Dance Troupe and the a cappella groups, Hilltones and Hilltrebles, from The Hill School, Pottstown (pictured below).

On display that afternoon will be an exhibit of Venezuelan-inspired paintings by local artist, Mary Jo Kimball Hopton. Her paintings will be available to view at www.veninos.org, and on Facebook during March 2010. Additionally, Chester County scenes captured in painting by Tim Swartz, in prints by Anne Keen, and in photos by Red Hamer will be on display and also available for purchase.

A ticketed reception will follow the concert offering a chance to meet the musicians and enjoy Latin American refreshments. Tickets: $10 for students and senior citizens, $15 for general admission and $25 for concert and reception. All proceeds will be split between the two charities, Veninos and Camphill Kimberton.
