Grammy-nominated band, Antigone Rising, to perform on Feb 15th

Looking for something to do with your kids over President's Weekend?

Norwalk, CT: All-female rock band, Antigone Rising, will perform a special benefit concert on Feb. 15th at 7:30pm at the Norwalk Concert Hall as part of the band’s outreach program, Girls Rising. KEYS (Kids Empowered by Your Support) will be a benefit recipient along with Jam Studio and the concert will include special performances from KEYS and Jam Studio students.

Girls Rising, a non-profit organization created by the band Antigone Rising, began in 2012 to inspire and empower children and adults alike to be “game changers.” The band's light-hearted rapport makes every Girls Rising event unique, entertaining and informative. Most importantly, a Girls Rising outreach always leaves kids (and grownups) feeling empowered.
