Concert to Support Recovery Efforts in Mount Washington Valley January 6, 2018
Bennett & Perkins to perform
at fundraiser at Endeavor House in Center Conway
Are you or a friend, loved one or
neighbor impacted by the opiate abuse epidemic and wish you could help support
a path to recovery? Now you can enjoy a night of camaraderie, good food and
good music with MWV Supports Recovery and Memorial Hospital’s A New Life
Prenatal Program as they host an evening of acoustic music by Bennett &
Perkins.
The evening of music will start off 6 p.m. with a community
pot luck dinner of soups, lasagna and other enticing food offerings served up
in hand-thrown, hand-crafted pottery bowls donated by local potter Jennie
Lanoie. Dinner follows with a concert by folk duo Bennett & Perkins, who
tour New England sharing their original music which has been compared to
artists ranging from Richard Thompson to Emmy Lou Harris. Often featured on NH
Public Radio’s The Folk Show, their music combines tight harmonies, compelling
storytelling, and master guitar work for an evening to remember.
The performance, set up in a house concert style, takes place
in MWV Supports Recovery Endeavor House in Center Conway, NH (just west of the
Conway Town Hall). The Endeavor House will be offering sober housing and recovery
services to women starting in 2018. MWV Supports Recovery also offers a Family
Resource Center. MWVSR Family Resource Center is a safe place where recovery
development occurs and where individuals will be matched with people offering
recovery support services.
Concert proceeds will also benefit A New Life, a prenatal
group program for those recovering from substance misuse disorder. It’s a
comprehensive program featuring medication assisted treatment, group counseling
and other support services through to childbirth giving both mother and child
better outcomes. The program is the only one of its kind in the north country
and benefits women prenatally and through their first year post-partum.
Tickets are just $25 per person and may be purchased online
in advance at www.bennettandperkins.com, or at Eventbrite at https://tinyurl.com/mwvandnewlifeconcert. Tickets are also available at the door, but advance online registration is
