EXPRESS YOURSELF is the brain child of Aussie drummer Simon Fishburn, who in the midst of New York's brutally long and cold winter just past, came across a Facebook post about the Hetrick-Martin Institute pantry wishlist winter appeal. Totally moved and inspired to want to contribute to the youth of his community (but not even having two pennies to rub together himself), Simon, along with recording artist Samia Mounts (his amazing co-leader and partner in crime), came up with this star studded, one night only concert to raise money for the LGBTQ youth of New York City.
The Arts & Culture programs offered by HMI are to foster self-expression through dance, film, photography, painting, theater and more, so these kids can reach their full potential in a safe and supportive environment. Being a professional drummer (and gay to boot), Simon understands very well the importance of nurturing young talent and providing for the 13-24 year olds that come through MHI’s doors every single day.
All proceeds go to the Arts & Culture programs at HMI for the LGBTQ Youth that come through their doors seeking acceptance, love, food, clothing and a chance at life.
PLEASE NOTE:
- All tickets must be purchased prior to the show.
Tickets WILL NOT be sold at the door!!!
- This is a 21+ event
