SPRING 2024 CONCERTS
Fundraiser for the Foundry
School music rooms are often a place of joy, comfort, and safety for youth. On June 8th, 1:00 - 3:00 PM, we are bringing that wonderful feeling outside and into the Victoria community. There is a BBQ sponsored by Amica Jubilee House at 12:30 PM.
The Music Room is an outdoor concert featuring student musicians from Shoreline Middle School and Esquimalt Secondary School, alongside professional musicians The Vancouver Island Chamber Choir and the nationally renowned Naden Band of the Royal Canadian Navy's Pacific Blue Big Band, over 150 performers in all.
The goal of this event is to fight the stigma of mental illness, encourage young people to seek help, and encourage attendees to support the Foundry, operated by Victoria Youth Clinic. Last year we raised just under $5000!
Please support The Music Room and Victoria Youth Clinic in letting youth know they don’t need to struggle alone.
