Horizon Stage & The Spruce Grove Library Team Up

See children’s entertainer Jack Grunsky for free at the Melcor Cultural Centre on Feb 15th
The Spruce Grove Public Library will re-open its doors at 6:30 p.m. on Friday, February 15th for a free 7:00 p.m. performance by Juno Award-winning children’s musician, Jack Grunsky. Jack’s unique concerts incorporate various cultures, rhythms, melodies and instrumentation. The winner of several Parents’ Choice Awards for his outstanding recordings and approach to teaching kids through music, Mr. Grunsky is a creative force, whose songs have found their way into homes, classrooms and hearts around the world.

Jack Grunsky’s Family Matinee performance at Horizon Stage on February 16th is already sold out but the theatre wanted to provide the wider community an opportunity to enjoy this wonderful artist. A partnership with the library, and a free concert in their program room, became the perfect solution.

Pre-show cookies, juice and crafts for the kids will be available from 6:30 to 7:00 p.m. Jack Grunsky’s concert will be approximately 45 minutes long, and fans are encouraged to stay afterwards and meet him. Jack’s CDs will be available for purchase before and after the performance, and the library will have a desk in the children’s section open to provide library information, membership assistance and check-out services.
So bring your kids, grandkids, parents and grandparents to the Spruce Grove Library for a family-friendly evening of music and entertainment with Jack Grunsky. Because this concert is free, no tickets are required. The library is located in the Melcor Cultural Centre at #35 – 5th Avenue on the east side of King Street Mall. Call the Horizon Stage Box Office at 962-8995 or the Spruce Grove Library at 962-4423 for more information.
