Barbara’s CDs will be for sale — $10.00 each (just in time for holiday shopping).

All gate proceeds will go to the church as well as $8.00 of every purchase of one of Barbara’s solo CDs.

Heavy hors d’oeuvres, coffee, tea, punch and water available between sets — BYOB if desired.

If you’re one of those people who’ve been listening to Barbara’s music for years and kept asking “Is any of this on CD?” — the answer is “yes.”

And Barbara is giving a benefit concert for the church to celebrate.  The concert will feature music from the CDs as well as other selections not yet released.
