Concert for Prithipura
View(s):The Ceylon Fellowship of Service, Prithipura Home in Wattala is a residential facility providing a safe environment from childhood onwards for mentally and physically differently able males and females. It currently houses 66 residents ranging from 14 to 60 years who come from poor homes where their families are unwilling or economically unable to look after them.
As a non-profit organization, CFS Prithipura Home looks to the community for support. State funding offsets only a small part of the cost of caring for residents, therefore private donations are essential.
Now two of the country’s leading pianists, Ramya de Livera Perera and Soundarie David Rodrigo are teaming up to present a two-piano recital in aid of Prithipura Home on October 10 at the Lionel Wendt at 7 p.m.
Well-known dancer, drummer and percussionist Kala Keerthi Ravibandhu Vidyapathy, will be a special guest performer at this recital.
Tickets for the Recital are available at the Lionel Wendt Arts Centre priced at Rs 3,500, Rs 2,500 and Rs 1,500 (reserved) and Rs 750 (unreserved, balcony) or at www.lionelwendt.org
