NEMPAC is featured in the November issue of Boston Magazine with a spread highlighting our successful Soirée on the Prado! Thank you to everyone who attended and supported our Soirée, and a particular shout-out to long-time NEMPAC supporter and student Mary Zanor, and to Jonathan Soroff for including us in Boston Magazine.
The story reads: “The North End Music & Performing Arts Center celebrates its ninth annual Soirée on the Paul Revere Mall, raising major dinero to support its mission of providing inclusive and affordable arts programming. Front and center were the evening’s honorees, actor and board member Doug Bowen Flynn, and EdVestors executive Ruth Mercado-Zizzo. The crowd there to fete them included City Council head honcha Ruthzee Louijeune; Boston Lyric Opera’s Bradley Vernatter and Ishan Johnson; and NEMPAC board member Tchad Cort. They were serenaded by Jazz maestro Stefano Marchese, youth performer Soleil Desai, and NEMPAC’s cast of Annie Jr., who sang the schmaltzy classic “Tomorrow” before a dance party helmed by Big Night Live’s DJ Kareem.
