Concert for a Cure coming soon
Tuesday, 13 July 2010 15:04
Last year’s Seacoast Concert for a Cure raised more than $15,000 to research breast cancer and support survivors, and organizers hope this year’s event will match that success. Tickets are now available for the sixth annual Concert for a Cure, which will take place on Thursday, Aug. 5, at the Seacoast Science Center in Rye.
Performers at this year’s event include Boston-based folk-rock band the Adam Ezra Group, along with reggae bands Mighty Mystic and Strings of Thunder. Proceeds will benefit the Betty J. Borry Breast Cancer Retreats, which provides adventure retreats for women with breast cancer, and On Belay, a local organization that supports children of people with cancer and other life-threatening diseases.
Since its inaugural event in 2005, the Seacoast Concert for a Cure has raised a total of more than $80,000 for local non-profit organizations that help cancer survivors and their families. This year’s event will also include a raffle and silent auction.
The music begins at 6 p.m. on Aug. 5 at the Seacoast Science Center, 570 Ocean Blvd., Rye, 603-436-8043. Tickets are $12 in advance or $15 day of show; $1 for children ages 4 to 12. Visit www.seacoastconcertforacure.com.
