Poco a Poco is having its first fundraiser. The proceeds will support eight days of music classes for high school age students from across the region next summer in Streator. Poco a Poco also puts on public performances. Executive Director and professional singer Kate Tombaugh started it five years ago and wants to keep the tuition low and the performances free.
Tombaugh will perform two songs for a singing telegram sent virtually on Christmas Eve. For $35, she’ll select two songs in an audio message. For $75, you get to pick the songs and she’ll read your personalized message in a video.
Orders are being taken at www.pocoapoco.org/telegrams. The first deadline, for the video messages, is Friday night next week. Audio message orders will be taken until December 21st.
