Uxbridge Celebration of the Arts 25th Anniversary - our first act booked

We, as the executive of the Uxbridge Celebration of the Arts 25, are all so excited and just giddy and happy and thrilled and jumping up and down - as you can tell we are all so easily moved. We have booked our first act of the program and it is a BIG one.

During the Celebration program, over 3 weeks worth of art events and activities, there are two Saturday night extravaganza's. These are called "GALA'S" and we have had some amazing performances from individuals, groups, duets, ensembles and more. We are thrilled to be announcing, that we will be having Ken Whiteley and his big band performing. It has in the past been held at the Music Hall, a historic building, with a stage, wooden floors, balcony made to help you to see everything that is happening below, and we will be enjoying the sound of this Canadian roots music legend. He is a gifted guitar and mandolin player, performing his original songs in blues and folk sound. He is also a 7 time Juno awards nominee.

The Gala will be a wonderful night of Ken with 10 musicians wowing us with guitars, bass, drums, horns, keyboards and singers. It will be a night that you will not be able to sit still and be transported to a place of jumping, clapping, laughing, singing and enjoying the wonders of arts in the Uxbridge community.
Full details will be follow BUT I JUST HAD TO TELL YOU!!!! We are so luck that we have supporters and friends to the Uxbridge Celebration of the Arts like Carolyn and Neil Turnbull.
