Rhiannon Hurst earned some serious respect in the jazz world even before she graduated high school. She won 2nd place in the Berklee International High School Jazz Singer’s Showcase and was one of four graduating seniors to receive the Excellence in Music Award from the Massachusetts Music Educators Association. She was the recipient of a prestigious 2021 National YoungArts Foundation (YoungArts) award in jazz voice for her caliber of artistic achievement. Her professional engagements have ranged from Boston’s Symphony Hall and the State Room to the North Shore’s favorite restaurants. With Matthew Walsh on Bass and Saxophone, Emmett Price IV on drums, and Jace Mason on guitar.

Tonight’s non-profit organization

In the spirit of giving back to the community each concert is partnered with a Cape Ann non-profit organization. The public is invited to make a free-will donation (So if you can, please bring cash/check.) This week's organization is Pathways for Children.

About Pathways for Children

Pathways is a leading provider of education and care programs on the North Shore of Massachusetts serving over 500 children and their families from 14 communities. Our year-round programming, including Head Start and Early Head Start, serves children birth to age 13 and their families. We have centers in Gloucester, Beverly and Salem.

Our comprehensive, all-inclusive educational programming offers meals, nutrition assessment, health and developmental screenings, referrals for special education services, family support, enrichment programs and transportation when necessary.

Pathways’ holistic, all-inclusive approach along with our outstanding performance reviews and professional accreditations are what set us apart from most early education and care organizations.

We set our standards high, value our dedicated professional staff, and invest in each child’s success.

Pathways programs reach our children and families in a wide variety of ways. Our social workers can make a difference for our families. Sue Todd, President and CEO states: “The staff can find and build on strengths that even the parent doesn’t know are there. That parent who walked through our door unable to make eye contact because of lack of self-esteem, finds their voice and finds their path to a promising future for their family.”

Become a summer series sponsor!

We are deeply grateful for grants from the Gloucester Community Preservation Act and the Massachusetts Cultural Council plus the generosity of individual donors. Each concert features talented local musicians and benefits Cape Ann non-profits through free will donations from the audience. Last year we raised over $18K in support of their important  work in our community. Delicious food is available from local vendors for dinner on the lawn, making our summer music festival a relaxing way to start the weekends through early September.

Now all we need is your support as Sponsors!
