Admission is free and it is open to the public; however monetary donations are always greatly appreciated and accepted. This year we will be having a Holiday Cookie sale as well as a 50-50 raffle.
We are also honored to have special guest percussionist Mary Gardner joining us on bodhrán. Mary Gardner studied at the University of Limerick and has performed with many nationally acclaimed Irish musicians. She has appeared on stage at such notable venues as Carnegie Hall, Lincoln Center, the National Concert Hall in Dublin, NYU’s Skirball Center for the Arts, and has had multiple musical tours in Ireland. Along with her expertise in traditional Irish music, Mary specializes in world music, marimba, and orchestral percussion. Her love of frame drums led her to study the Middle Eastern approach to bodhrán with master percussionist and four time Grammy winner Glen Velez. In addition to her career as a performing artist, Mary teaches beginning band and is the director of percussion studies for Westport Public Schools.
