The 2nd Annual Music For A Cure Saint John Aug 30th 12pm Live @ the Boardwalk!

With music as our weapon of choice, We continue the fight against cancer and help friends, family and complete strangers on their journey battling this terrible disease. Scott Mitchell and BRandom Talent are pleased to announce that we are back for the 2nd annual Music For A Cure Saint John taking place on Saturday Aug 30th from 12pm - 11:30pm live at the Boardwalk stage in Market Square.

10 artists both local and non local will take the stage and share their craft with the Port City to raise funds to end cancer and also help current cancer patients.

50% of proceeds from this event will go to the Canadian Cancer Society with the remaining 50% to Victoria's Quilts. For those who aren't aware, Victoria's Quilts are a non-profit group who hand make quilts for terminally ill cancer patients.

There are many ways you can donate to this cause during the event. We will have:
- 50/50 draws
- Raffle draws for one of many gift cards
- A dunk tank Provided by R N BSounds DarrylDaamen (2$ for 3 balls)
- A silent art auction featuring paintings / drawings and sketches from the late Karla Fox-Hickson and Zoe Guimond.
- And lastly a memory wall where for a donation of your choosing, you can place a name on a leaf card to add to our MFACSJ wall in memory of a family member or a friend who you have lost from cancer, and in between each artist we will read off the names of those to the audience.

We will also have Face Painting from the lovely Sheila Little who will donate part of her proceeds to this cause.

Line up change!!!

Due to circumstances beyond our control. Round Four and Chasing Dragons had to drop off the bill. Additionally we've added an After Party held at Peppers beginning at 11pm which will include DFO / Along With Ghosts and Little You Little Me who will not be on the main event at the boardwalk stage. The show will be 5$ and all proceeds raised go towards the very same cause as MFACSJ.

Also, I am pleased to announce we've added the lovely Jaclyn Reinhart to the roster!!!!!
