Voices For Pilgrims Hospice

Join honorary patrons, Dr. Bob and Marilyn Westbury and many Pilgrims Hospice sponsors and supporters to enjoy an evening of exceptional musical talents, dance, and celebration of life. 

Voices for Hospices is the world’s largest musical global event that gives local hospices the opportunity to raise funds, awareness and practical support within their own communities. The concert line-up includes: RyanDan, Ann Vriend, Mattierin Irish Dancers & Wajjo Drummers, Lindsey Walker, and Pro Coro Canada, Alberta’s Professional Choir.

Brothers Ryan and Dan Kowarsky are back with “Silence Speaks”, the follow up to their highly successful and internationally acclaimed self-titled debut. The evening will also feature its signature Art silent auction which will showcase works from many local talented artists. Many of these artists have supported Pilgrims Hospice over the years including this event. Concert goers will enjoy the sounds of the John Boyd Dixieland Band in the main foyer of the Winspear.

 As a non-profit society, Pilgrims Hospice provides many forms of support to people living with a life-threatening disease. It also helps family caregivers and loved ones when a death occurs. Tickets are $50 and go on sale on Thursday, September 16. Call the Winspear Box Office at               780-428-1414        or www.winspearcentre.com
