DIANA JONES AT VOICES CAFE NEXT SATURDAY, JUNE 11 AT 8:00 PM FOR REFUGEES' BENEFIT
Award winning singer/songwriter Diana Jones comes to Voices Café in-person and live streamed. Jones’ signature storytelling resonates deeply, with her Song To A Refugee, reflecting her empathy for, and common cause with, the plight of refugees. Her voice is “...at times haunting, at times heart-breaking, and always challenging”, says Down at the Crossroads
Refugees aren’t the only subject that concerns Diana. Click HERE for “Love o Love”.
 
Voices Café is raising funds for the Connecticut Institute for Refugees and Immigrants’ (CIRI) Apartment Set Up Team, settling refugees in Fairfield County. Over the past 6 months volunteers have set up 41 apartments for 194 refugees. 
 
Join us for great live music, our warm atmosphere, and support refugees settling in our area! Tickets: https://voicescafe.org/
