Sounds of Hope Benefit Concert

We invite you to join us to celebrate the strong and growing Guatemala solidarity movement in the DC-metro area. Relax with great company, inspiring music, and delicious food, while at the same time supporting the Guatemala Human Rights Commission and our work on behalf of  victims and survivors of human rights violations in Guatemala.

Dinner and homemade desserts will be served from the Potter's House menu starting at 7pm. The food is fresh and affordable, and help make the benefit concert series possible. .

Music will begin at 7:30 with Melinda and Paul, a DC musical duo, who celebrate the Latin American tradition of bringing about social change through music.  Their fresh harmonies bring alive a broad repertoire, from folk songs from Pablo's native Nicaragua to regional favorites by Mercedes Sosa and Silvio Rodriguez. They will be followed by Song Rise, a new, DC-based women's a cappella group who believe that through music they can ignite hope, bring joy, inspire courage, and motivate themselves and others to create change.

Getting there is easy! The Potter's House is located at 1658 Columbia Road, NW in Washington, DC. It is just a 10 minute walk from Woodley Rd (red) or Columbia Heights (green). Bus #42 (from Dupont Circle Red Line) stops outside our front door. Some street parking is also available. Details at: http://www.pottershousedc.org/mapdirections.
