Sounds of the Sacred 2023: A free Interfaith Concert
Music lovers! – you’re invited to a free, informal interfaith concert, 7pm, May 22nd, a Monday evening at the Fickling Centre in Three Kings, Mt Eden.
A number of interfaith music groups will share their music on stage in the Hillsborough Room, following the popularity and successes of our larger interfaith and cultural concerts in earlier years.
Some six different groups from Buddhist, Christian, Hindu, Hare Krishna and Jewish traditions are so far participating, with more expected. The evening will provide an opportunity to experience the music of different cultures, forge new friendships and to reconnect with old friends after a couple of challenging years.
We’ll have a wide selection of vegetarian snacks and refreshments post-concert.
Admission is entirely free. Let us know if you’re coming by responding on the contact page below, so we can ensure adequate seating is available.
