Event Description

Keith Alessi left his high-level corporate executive job and chose to greet a grim cancer diagnosis by pursuing his passion — learning the banjo, well enough to do one stage show.

Over 100 performances and International tours later, including Off-Broadway and at the famed Edinburgh Festival, Keith brings this inspiring and humorous story in support of the arts and healing.

Don’t miss this humorous and inspiring evening in support of two important community organizations.
