SUPPORT REFUGEES & ASYLUM SEEKERS
This has been one tough winter. The news and the weather have been brutal. That’s why I’m teaming up with singer-songwriter Rebecca Padula, and storyteller-folk troubadour Rik Palieri to take part in the Central Vermont Refugee Assistance Network’s March Arts Marathon. Every day in March, we will email a musical performance to those who contribute to CVRAN and support their work to provide support and safe haven to asylum seekers and refugees during this critical time.
Join us, won't you?

Songs can provide comfort. They can inspire. They can express rage or love or hope. They can explore and distill those details of life that can elevate everyday existence.
All donations go directly to CVRAN.
