A fund raiser for the Denis Hurley Centre
Dbn Jewish Club: Sun 2 March at 3pm
The Denis Hurley Centre is delighted to present an afternoon of fabulous jazz at the Durban Jewish Club on Sunday 2 March at 3pm, in the glorious company of Melvin Peters with Debbie and George Mari and friends.
The band comprises Melvin Peters on piano, George Mari on trumpet, Debbie Mari on vocals, Thuto Motsemme on bass, LeeRoy Khumalo on drums and Johan van Molen on saxophone. There will be special guests too – school choirs from Our Lady of Fatima and St Henry’s Marist College.
It will take place on Sunday 2 March at 3pm – it is the last Sunday before Lent and so it is a chance to get in a carnival mood and perhaps enjoy some pancakes and all the things that you are planning to give up for Lent! Bring cash with you for the raffle with excellent gifts.
“We are repeating the hugely successful jazzy afternoon that was held in 2020 in honour of the now late Mgr Paul Nadal. The venue is the same – the Durban Jewish Club in North Beach with lots of safe parking and air con! And we are delighted to welcome back Durban’s finest jazz musicians, Melvin Peters; George and Debbie Mari. Many thanks to all concerned for generously donating their services,” says DHC Director Dr Raymond Perrier.
Everyone concerned are giving freely of their time and talents as a fund raiser for the incredible work of the Denis Hurley Centre – an inner-city interfaith facility which supports the homeless, marginalised and refugee communities.
Seating is predominantly picnic-style around tables, and some cinema-style individual seats too. Tickets are now on sale by clicking this link / Through Quicket. The premium seats are around a table so feel free to bring snacks and drinks to enhance your afternoon – and a chance to connect friends and family for a special afternoon. There is a special price if you book a whole table – if you pay for nine premium seats you get a whole table which can accommodate up to 12 people. There are also lower priced regular seats. As a special incentive, the first 100 people to book will receive an electronic thermometer as a gift: courtesy of the Islamic Medical Association
