The Opera Project will present a benefit concert, “Songs for St. Thomas”, on Saturday, September 20th at 8 PM at the St. Thomas Episcopal Church, 98 Sky Manor Road, Pittstown, NJ, 08867.
The concert of opera arias and art songs is part of the Tricentennial celebration of life in Hunterdon County. St.
Founded in 1723, St. Thomas Episcopal Church is a small church with a long history; It is the oldest still-operating church in Hunterdon County. The church’s old log structure was replaced with a stone foundation in 1769. It has survived the Revolutionary War and the Civil War to the present, not without its ups and downs, but due in no small part to the men and women of the congregation and surrounding community, to be the vibrant and active church that it is today.
The Opera Project, which has been Artist in Residence for several years at the Prallsville Mills in Stockton and St. Andrew’s Episcopal Church in Lambertville, is a charitable non-profit serving the needs of the community as well as providing performance opportunities for developing and emerging singers. Many of its singers have spent this summer performing in Europe, America, and Canada. We are always proud of their accomplishments as we open this, our seventh concert season.
Tickets for Songs for St. Thomas are $20 and are available at the door. For more information, or if you wish to audition or make a tax deductible donation to help us in our work, please call 908-268-1264, or visit www.theoperaproject.us.
