NeighborWorks Blackstone River Valley, in partnership with the Woonsocket Afterschool Coalition, seeks to present Nicole Zuraitis on Wednesday, Oct. 16 as part of a monthly series of Community Concerts & Pizza Parties celebrated on the Millrace Patio at the gateway to downtown Woonsocket, RI. The series aims to increase pride in place, activate public spaces, and build community through the power of the arts. Each night is a celebration of local diversity through incredibly talented New England musicians of different backgrounds, genres, races, ethnicities, and identities. These events intentionally foster deepen bonds between community members through the preparation and sharing of pizza cooked on-site. Importantly, an educational workshop for area youth is scheduled just prior to the performance to increase appreciation of the arts. Nicole Zuraitis brings Grammy nominated caliber Jazz music to over 250 Rhode Islanders during this event.
