West Vancouver Montessor School Fundraiser

and World Music ConCert

Apr 22, 2004

By Catherine Barr

 

Last last month the parents and friends of West Vancouver Montessor School gathered for their annual Wine and Cheese Soiree. Held at Stittgen Fine Jewelry store on Bellevue, the night featured scruptuous eats and lots of silent auction prizes to bid on including hotel stays, ski passes and spa packages.

Centennial Theatre was the scene of a very special concert last week as the "2004 Embrace the World" concert played to a sold out house. Featuring Guatemalan-American vocalist and multi-Grammy winning producer KC Porter, Colombian singer/songwriter Leonor Dely, Iranian master violinist Farzad and China’s own Lin Cheng, the concert aimed to promote "unity in diversity" and was presented in part by the Baha’i communities of North and West Vancouver.


Vancouver's best events and celebrity functions are all archived here. Vancouver pubs, clubs, nightclubs, gala events and fundraisers are included. Thanks for viewing.

Due to server capacity, you will not be able to access or click through to the larger photographs. With over 250,000 unique visits each month, our site would quickly exceed the amount of memory needed.

If you would like to receive a copy of a photograph, then please send an email and enclose the details of the event, the date, the name, the photo number and the names of the people in the photograph. Also, for security reasons, I prefer not to email copies of pictures to anyone other than the people who are actually in the photo. Thanks.
