Boeing Employees Band benefit for Music4Life™ at Mill Creek
Wednesday, June 10, 2015
The Boeing Employees Concert Band will provide a free, public open-air concert at 7:30pm on June 16, 2015 at Brookdale Arbor Place in the Mill Creek area. The performance is a benefit for Music4Life™, the program that provides useable musical instruments for the students of low income families. Financial and musical instrument donations will be accepted.
Under the direction of Alexi Girsch, the Boeing Band is comprised exclusively of current or former Boeing employees and performs free concerts throughout the Seattle area about a dozen times a year.
Brookdale Arbor Place (formerly Emeritus at Silver Lake) is a senior living community located at 12806 Bothell-Everett Highway that is surrounded by protected wetlands and nestled in the trees. In case of rain, the concert will be moved indoors.
Music4Life™ acquires “lovingly used” musical instruments from adults who no longer need them, gets them fully repaired and ready-to-play and then provides them to participating public school districts for use by elementary-aged students of low income families.
Music4Life operates programs supporting Edmonds, Highline, Mukilteo, Seattle, and Shoreline Public Schools. The program acquires used instruments from adults who understand that their highest and best use is to put them back into play. With adequate resources, Music4Life also buys new musical instruments for school districts. A Donor Form describing the instrument must accompany any donated instrument.
