Follow on Google News | Musicians on a Mission Announces Fall Lineup for Sessions at CVRMusicians on a Mission has booked nine musical acts, who have volunteered to perform, this fall at the Center for Vocational Rehabilitation’s (CVR) Sessions at CVR.
“When this opportunity to support Sessions at CVR was presented to our board, we all agreed it just made sense,” said Brenda Wirth, Musicians on a Mission board member. “The sentiment of connecting, sharing and making a difference through music is at the heart of our mission statement. I also believe the musicians who perform at CVR will find it to be an incredibly rewarding experience. This is a real opportunity to make a difference.” Exposure to the arts can play an essential role in the lives of all people with special needs by promoting self-expression and communication. “We could not be more appreciative of Musician on a Mission’s commitment to Sessions at CVR,” said Travis Johnson, marketing and activities coordinator at CVR. “When Brenda (Wirth) opened up her booking calendar and showed me that she had musicians booked throughout the fall, I could not believe it. To have musicians come here and perform is such a validator for our special needs participants. It makes an amazing positive impact. Beyond the fact that they will be singing, dancing and smiling, they also gain an increased sense of self-worth.” Sessions at CVR Fall Schedule 8/29 Gary Phillips 9/5 Michael Cappelluti 9/12 Gina Leigh 9/19 Ankar 9/26 Clan Suibhne 10/3 Keith Monacchio 10/10 Brandon Broderick 10/17 Michael Brett 10/24 Sal Aversano For further information about “Sessions at CVR,” please contact Travis Johnson - Phone: Musicians who wish to participate in a future edition of “Sessions at CVR,” please contact Brenda Wirth - E-mail: musiciansonamission@ Founded in 1954, the Center for Vocational Rehabilitation (CVR) has provided what people with disabilities need most for their self-respect and the esteem of others: WORK.
