POTSDAM -- Hospice and Palliative Care of St. Lawrence Valley is welcoming the Flying Ivories Piano Company of Boston, Massachusetts to the Cheel Campus Center, Clarkson University Saturday, April 27 for a night of entertainment to benefit their services.

“This event has been a hit since its inception, we knew we had to bring it back again” said Kellie Hitchman, director of development and community relations for Hospice. “Our audiences have averaged 400 guests each year, while the feedback has been overwhelmingly positive, we have made a few adjustments to ensure a great experience for our guests. Events like this are extremely unique in the north country. We are so pleased to be able to offer a great night of entertainment to our community in support of our services.”

Rather than a concert type of atmosphere, this is a fully interactive experience for the audience. Whether its 50’s, 60’s, 70’s, 80’s, 90’s or current, rap, country, or rock and roll, the performers know virtually any song that comes to mind.

Attendees make requests which steers the direction of the show and comedy is incorporated from the first note until the show ends. Whether it’s a date night, girls’ night out or a group of friends getting together, adults of all ages are sure to enjoy this event.

The Flying Ivories are a professional company with presence in Boston, New York and Philadelphia. They were rated by Gig Masters as “Best of 2018” in all three cities.

A silent auction, organized by Local Artists Helping Local People initiative, featuring items donated by many local artists and crafters will be held during the concert.

Doors for the show to benefit Hospice will open at 5:30 p.m. on Saturday, April 27, with the show kicking off at 7 p.m.

Heavy hor d’oeuvres will be served and a cash bar will be available.

Tickets for the show are just $35 and will be available until April 19 or until they sell out. Tickets must be purchased in advance, they will not be sold at the door. Reserved tables of 10 are available at a discounted rate of $300.

For more information, contact Samantha or Kellie at Hospice at 315-265-3105. Tickets may be purchased online by visiting www.hospiceslv.org.
