An intimate evening with Katherine Jenkins OBE

by Trizia Clarke Pasqua’ – Easter in Italy, is considered the most important religious event of the year. Much more celebratory than Christmas and of course, celebrations mean feasting - which is what the Italians do best. Easter has always been extra special for us, indeed my dad was named after it (Pasquale) so there was always a big family party at our house to celebrate. Even though we lost my dad three years ago, my Mum still starts the food prep 4 days before Easter and makes enough Pizza Ripiene (Easter Pies) to feed several local families. Whatever your religious beliefs, April brings so much to celebrate. The first delicious vegetables begin to sprout, the joy of tasting the first of the outdoor Jersey Royals, the fruit trees beginning to blossom and the sun shining longer every day. Full story on page 22.

Famous Cow Productions is delighted to announce an intimate evening with the award winning Katherine Jenkins OBE, in aid of Jersey Hospice Care. The event will take place at the Royal Jersey Showground on Saturday 20th May 2017. Katherine is a mezzo-soprano singer and songwriter who has had enormous success throughout her career.
