Sanctuary: An Interfaith Concert of Support

On Saturday, Nov. 11 at 6:30 p.m., the musical group, Sanctuary, will hold a concert at Temple Habonim in Barrington to help support the University Pediatric Hospital in San Juan, Puerto Rico.

Cantorial soloist Jodi Blankstein, guitarist Adam Dehner, cantorial soloist Lisa Marcus Jones, vocalist Anne Kalis, bassist Warren Olsen and percussionist Mitch Gordon – who call themselves Sanctuary – will offer an evening of inspirational and soulful songs to support those still suffering in Puerto Rico in the aftermath of Hurricane Maria.

Sanctuary’s music brings people together. These six musicians have felt called to share their circle of support and positivity with the larger community, using what they know best: music. Temple Habonim member, and architect, Jay Litman, has been coordinating a local effort to collect and transport critical medical supplies that will help to restock the University Pediatric Hospital in San Juan. Members of the community are asked to bring an item or two from the following group of items: Hand Sanitizer, Iodine/Betadine Swabs, Exam Table Paper, Sterile Water Bottles, Fever Thermometers, Glucometers with strips, Otoscope with disposable tips, Biohazard Bags, Barrier Creams: Zinc Oxide, and Mosquito Repellent/Nets.
