Music to the ears, food to the table. University of Cincinnati College-Conservatory of Music (CCM) will be hosting their Music for Food Concert Series, this weekend!

Working in collaboration with the Music for Food national hunger relief initiative, chamber music concerts performed by CCM will benefit Cincinnati’s Freestore Foodbank. The Music for Food concerts will take place on Sunday Mar 25 from 2-5 p.m. at the Dieterle Vocal Arts Center, Room 300.

Come enjoy the melodic beauty of The Ariel Quartet, Lydia Brown and Gwen Coleman Detwiler. The cost of admission is a non-perishable food item or cash donation. Suggested cash donations are $20 for the general public and $15 for students.

All food and funds raised throughout this event will go to Freestore Foodbank. Freestore Foodband is the largest emergency food and services provider to children and families in Greater Cincinnati, Northern Kentucky and Southeast Indiana. The organization distributes 20 million meals annually to low-income individuals and families. The Freestore Foodbank supports more than 250 community partners in 20 counties throughout Kentucky, Ohio and Indiana, including food kitchens, homeless shelters, emergency food pantries and social service centers.

Help support the CCM utilize their artistry to fight hunger, this weekend!
