Six-time Grammy award winner and contemporary Christian artist Amy Grant will host a special concert benefiting Metropolitan Ministries at 7:30 p.m. on Monday, May 11, 2009 at the Tampa Bay Performing Arts Center’s Carol Morsani Hall.
In support of Metropolitan Ministries, Grant said, “I think a home is so important. It is a place to gather. A home helps to provide a foundation. There, you can find all your basic needs: food, shelter and love.”
This is a treat for Amy Grant fans as she will not be touring the United States until fall 2009. 100% of ticket sale proceeds from the concert will go towards providing ongoing counseling and support services to those enrolled in the Ministries’ transitional and affordable housing programs.
Tickets can be purchased through the Tampa Bay Performing Arts Center web site at www.tbpac.org. Prices are $35 (Gallery level), $50 (Balcony and Mezzanine level) and $75 (Orchestra level). Receive $10 off by using the discount code faith09 when purchasing online.
