Victoria is a very talented pianist, and wants to share her talents to help fundraise for our Hospice! 🕊️

She is a RCM Level 10 pianist, and has been a provincial finalist in the OMFA competition almost every year, with a first-place award in Ontario for best Piano Duet in 2024 and 2025. She also volunteers weekly playing piano at the Windsor Regional Hospital.

Victoria is hosting a piano concert at the School of Creative Arts - tickets are by donation only, and it's first come, first served. There will be other fun activities and chances to win gifts during her performance, with all proceeds being donated in support of our Hospice patients and their loved ones! 💙

When: Saturday, July 5, 2025 from 1:30-2:30 PM (doors open at 1:15 PM)
