Guests are invited to arrive early for a silent auction and light refreshments, with doors opening at 6pm and the concert beginning at 7:30 pm. The Fairview Library Theatre offers comfortable, fully accessible seating, free parking, and easy TTC access.
Headlining the evening is Jay Douglas, a three-time Juno nominee whose rich career spans global music festivals and iconic stages such as Koerner Hall, Harbourfront Theatre, the CNE Bandshell, and The Old Mill.
