Second Annual Peter Mayer Concert - To Benefit Heartland Animal Shelter January 23, 2009

Take a break from a cold winter’s night for a warm night of music and laughter as Heartland Animal Shelter welcomes back Peter Mayer for his Second Annual Concert to benefit the cats and dogs at Heartland. The concert is scheduled for Friday, January 23, 2009 at the Northbrook Theatre – Northbrook Leisure Center, 3323 Walters Avenue.

Doors open at 6:45 pm with refreshments provided by the Balanced Kitchen and Sweet Dreams Organic Bakery and the concert begins at 7:30 pm. Mayer, a Minnesota-based singer, is known for his whimsical, humorous music that breaks the boundaries of folk music. Tickets are $25 in advance and $30 at the door for adults and $10 for children. Reserve seating is available online at www.heartlandanimalshelter.net or by calling (847) 682-2286.

Enjoy appetizers, dessert, music, a raffle and shopping with the various event sponsors. Those sponsors currently include Ethical Planet – an all-vegan, organic, earth-friendly story – and Angelica’s Cards – who will be demonstrating how to use their animal communicator cards with proceeds from sales donated to the shelter.
