Make room for music. Make room for art. Make room for hope.

Join us for an inspiring evening where the timeless melodies of Canada's musical legends create space for hope and connection. This special evening raises vital funds for TIES to support newcomers and Canadians in need through programs that foster self-sufficiency, family well-being, and stronger communities.

A Proudly Canadian Evening

Let the Stampede String Quartet transport you with acoustic and instrumental interpretations of iconic songs by Canadian legends such as Celine Dion, Shania Twain, Bryan Adams, Sarah McLachlan, Michael Bublé, and Alanis Morissette.

Experience “Voices in the Art” — a moving exhibition of original works created by newcomer 2SLGBTQIA+ youth, offering a glimpse into their journeys of identity, resilience, and hope. Refreshments and bar service will be available.

Stay tuned for the ticket sales announcement!
