Friends of Music is excited to announce that the 2021-2022 concert season IS ON!
For those of you who are not familiar with Friends of Music, we have been organizing concerts here on Fripp Island for 37 seasons! We typically offer 5 concerts per season with a wide variety of artists and musical styles at our Community Centre chapel, followed by a catered (food and wine) Meet the Artist(s) reception.
This year, as a thank you to our longtime supporters who have been so patient during the pandemic closure, we have added a bonus 6th concert at no additional cost! We encourage you to go to our website for membership information and to preview the concert line up. Unsure about membership? You can also attend our programs on a concert-by-concert basis for $30 each concert. However, Basic membership is a great deal, saving you $80 per person for all 6 concerts.
Have you heard of our Music-in-theSchools program? On Mondays, after their concert on Fripp, the musicians bring live music to the students in one of our Beaufort County schools through the Peg Gorham Memorial Fund. This fund also supports local young musicians with scholarships and financial contributions. Our other fund, the Hildy Aldrich Memorial Fund, promotes music education at St. Helena Elementary School.
You can support these great programs by becoming a Patron or above member (the additional contribution is added to the Peg Gorham Memorial Fund and is tax deductible!) or by providing an additional contribution to the Hildy Aldrich Memorial Fund.
