A musical Italian feast at The Humberview

Members of the Humberview Music Activity Council executive relax in a Bolton Beachcomber hot tub. Beachcomber is providing this hot tub and other items as major silent auction items for the school fund-raiser.

For one brief evening Humberview School's cafetorium will be transformed into an Italian piazza, complete with candle-lit tables, elegant tablecloths, fine wines and pasta, as Humberview Music Parents and the Music Council present Trattoria Musica.

This musical feast to be held at the school Friday, April 20 is guaranteed to delight all of your senses and will subsidize the costs of the music department's participation in the prestigious national finals of Musicfest Canada, held in Richmond, B.C.

Guests will be treated to culinary delights along with musical ones, serenaded by the musical stylings of the award-winning the Humberview's Jazz Combo, Jazzork and Mkosa.

But that's not all. A silent auction will be a highlight of the evening.

"Local businesses have once again shown their generosity and support," said arts head John Chalmers. "We've got a great selection of products and services from a wakeboard, BBQ and fullsize hot tub courtesy of Bolton Beachcomber to a variety of original artwork and an assortment of items sure to please everyone."

Beginning at 6 p.m. guests will be able to check out the offerings in the auction or just share a friendly drink with friends. The dinner will begin at 6:30.

For the price of $10 ($8 for children 5 to 12 and free for children under 5), guests will be served a pasta dinner with salad, coffee, tea, water and dessert, while a cash bar will offer beer and wine.

"We're really proud of the talents and efforts of our students and the fact they have been included in this invitational festival," said Chalmers. "We're really counting on the community to join us for this event."
