Kretzer Piano Music Foundation to Present KRETZER KIDS in Concert at CityPlace
The Kretzer Piano Music Foundation's popular MUSIC FOR THE MIND concert series will return on Tuesday, December 12, with the talented KRETZER KIDS in Concert. The joyous musical event will be held at 7 pm, in the Harriet Himmel Theatre at CityPlace in West Palm Beach.
"The KRETZER KIDS are an extraordinarily talented group of middle and high school students that perform over 50 concerts a year in nursing homes, assisted living facilities, and children's hospitals throughout our community," says Kathi Kretzer, founder of the Kretzer Piano Music Foundation (KPMF).
Tickets to attend this MUSIC FOR THE MIND concert are $10 for Adults and $5 for Students, and are available by calling CTS Tickets at 866-449-2489. Profit from this concert will help fund the KRETZER KIDS program.
KPMF is a non-profit organization dedicated to bringing the gift of music to children and seniors. "We are passionate about music being a part of every child's life and the Foundation provides performance opportunities so young artists can share their talents with others," says founder Kathi Kretzer.
In addition to awarding scholarships for music lessons and donating pianos to disadvantaged children and local children's charities, KPMF's popular programs include:
+ The KRETZER KIDS, gifted young people who perform over 50 concerts every year in nursing homes, assisted living facilities and children's hospitals
+ The Music for the Mind concert series presented the third Tuesday of every month at CityPlace in West Palm Beach. These concerts feature various musical groups from our area. Beginning in 2002, Music for the Mind has provided more than 11,000 young musicians the opportunity to perform while raising over $625,000 to help keep music in our schools and community.
+ The Keyboards for Kids group piano classes are held weekly for 60 inner-city school children at the Center for Creative Education in Pleasant City.
+ The headline-grabbing Keys to the Cities campaign that placed 18 whimsically painted pianos in public spots from Jupiter to Delray Beach (and winner of the 2014 Bernays Award for Best Special Event from the Gold Coast PR Council).
+ The PHYSICIANS TALENT SHOWCASE concerts held for five years featured a group of talented medical doctors and raised funds for local children's charities and music education.
