Window Serenades Come to Benchmark Senior Living at Ridgefield Crossings on Make Music Day
Make Music Ridgefield, part of the international Make Music Day, will take place on Sunday, June 21st. While our current climate has created some challenges in programming, it has also created some new opportunities.
Inspired by the national MMD organization, Make Music Ridgefield, in collaboration with Compassionate Ridgefield, has partnered with Benchmark Senior Living at Ridgefield Crossings as the venue for its Window Serenade event. Musicians will perform outside, while the residents listen and watch safely from their windows. “Music is a very big part of our senior population here at Ridgefield Crossings. Especially in this trying time, music can be very uplifting and can bring their spirits up.” says program director Kerry Cardinal
“I am eagerly anticipating all the musical talent I will be seeing and enjoying that day.” Herb Oringel, one of Ridgefield Crossings residents enthusiastically stated.
The Ridgefield Arts Council is a volunteer municipal council appointed by the Board of Selectman. We generate attention for and collaboration between members of Ridgefield’s vibrant arts community. Our mission is to inform, entertain and inspire those who appreciate and create art in all its genres.
