On April 5, the Bolton Community Crew hosted artist Paul Fracassi for a Frankie Valli and Roy Orbison tribute concert at the centre.  The concert was part of the crew's CrossCurrents Cafe series, which it took over from the Bolton United Church. Sarah Leslie, a Bolton Community Crew volunteer, said Fracassi was “amazing.” “He was incredible, his voice was incredible,” said Leslie. “He sang all the classics that everyone knows… people got up and danced and it was all very well received.” Leslie said the CrossCurrents Cafe is a monthly event that gives local artists an opportunity to perform to the Caledon community. It's held on the first Friday every month at the Humber River Centre, and artists are already booked until the end of this year. The CrossCurrents Cafe will break for the months of July and August. “There's a lot of great feedback and a lot of people want to perform,” said Leslie. She said the Humber River is beautiful and an amazing space to host concerts in.  “It's absolutely perfect for community events such as this,” said Leslie. “I do want to speak on my appreciation for town staff — they've been really accommodating to us, and very supportive with this CrossCurrents Cafe.” Leslie said around 90 people came out to last Friday's CrossCurrents Cafe, a great turnout that was very close to a full house. She explained that all money raised from CrossCurrents Cafe tickets goes towards future Bolton Community Crew events. Leslie said she wanted to give a special thanks to long-time CrossCurrents Cafe volunteer Bob Romanyk, who does all the sound and lighting for the events.  “He has so kindly been helping us every single month,” said Leslie. “There's a lot of support for these events… it's not just the Bolton Community Crew.” --------------------------------------------------- Images: --------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------- Post date: 2024-04-11 13:50:56 Post date GMT: 2024-04-11 17:50:56 Post modified date: 2024-04-18 11:06:15 Post modified date GMT: 2024-04-18 15:06:15 ____________________________________________________________________________________________ Export of Post and Page as text file has been powered by [ Universal Post Manager ] plugin from www.gconverters.com
