Join L’Esperance Mandolin Ensemble and Church of the Apostles for a concert and barbecue celebrating the summer season on Sunday, June 14 at 170 Fairview Ave, Coventry, RI.
The Church of the Apostles will serve a chicken barbecue at 5:00 benefiting Blackrock Elementary School Food Pantry. This will provide support to families during the school’s summer break. A free-will (pay what you wish) donation will be accepted at the dinner.
Following the barbecue, L’Esperance will present a concert featuring Chagall’s Mandolins by Hankus Netsky, Strinennia by Michael Bell, and H.F. Odell’s arrangement of Georges Bizet’s famous opera, Carmen.

Since 1994, l’Esperance has been sharing that joy with audiences around New England.
