Join Music for Food for their final concert of the season–Voices from Germany–to benefit Women’s Lunch Place!
The finale of Notes from Across the Sea–Music for Food’s 13th Boston core concert season–begins at 7:30pm on Sunday, April 23, in New England Conservatory’s Brown Hall, with Brahms’ Piano Quintet, Beethoven’s String Quartet Op. 59, No. 1, and Schumann songs. Our stupendous artists Ayano Ninomiya, Lucy Chapman, Kim Kashkashian, Peter Stumpf, Alessio Bax, and the Parker Quartet. All Music for Food artists donate their time and talent to raise awareness of food insecurity and support local food relief efforts. Admission is free, and donations are welcomed, as all proceeds will benefit Women’s Lunch Place (WLP), which will soon launch its 40th anniversary of providing needed resources to vulnerable women in Boston.
- Thanks in part to MFF’s $22,918.12 contribution last season, WLP prepared and served a record 111,009 healthy meals in the last fiscal year. This comes at a critical time, because:
- One in three adults in Massachusetts experienced food insecurity last year
- Grocery prices are higher than they’ve been since WLP’s inception
Additional Details:
Suggested donation is $30+ and $10+ for students, collected at the door. 100% of donations will benefit Women's Lunch Place—a day shelter serving women experiencing homelessness, hunger, and poverty in the greater Boston area.
