Nov. 14 - Give A Care Monthly Benefit Concert at Modified Arts


Give A Care Monthly benefit concerts at Modified Arts

Opeeo Entertainment presents the next in a series of monthly benefit shows at 6pm on November 14 at Modified Arts (407 E. Roosevelt, Phoenix). This month's Give A Care takes place during the Modifest Music Festival. Proceeds from Give A Care and the three-day Modifest will be donated to the Phoenix Public Library Foundation for the support of music and art programs at Teen Central, the 5,000-square-foot space devoted to kids ages 12-18 at Burton Barr Central Library. Designed for and by teens, Teen Central is a safe, engaging environment where teens can study, learn and socialize.

Bands include What Laura Says, Stellaluna, Farewell Review, Yellow Minute, Matthew Reveles and So & So. Admission gets each lucky audience member a wristband for an entire evening with the best in budding local talent.

Give A Care unites not only a handful of great musicians, but also incorporates neighboring businesses. Lost Leaf, Carly's Bistro, Pasta Bar, and Moira Sushi Bar and other businesses within walking distance will offer discounts to those with Give A Care wristbands on the night of the event to show their support. Give A Care hopes to shape a new realm of possibilities for the Phoenix music scene mainly because a portion of each monthís proceeds will be donated to a different local charity or organization, giving musicians, business owners, and music lovers a chance to "give a care" about their community.
