Looking for a way to get involved in the Alberta Ave community, make some friends and make music at the same time? We invite you to join a passionate group of music makers on our fair Ave, The Alberta Avenue Choir!
Alberta Avenue Choir is a new initiative that aims to use the love of singing as a great platform to enhance relationships in the general Edmonton community. Our singers are from broad backgrounds and different musical abilities, but our love for singing is what we all have in common. We have decided to focus our repertoire on music from all over the world, and since our director is from Africa, we have started our first two seasons by learning some music from Southern Africa.
Unfortunately, Carla Rugg is unable to make it tonight. But every cloud has a silver lining. Thomas Mead has graciously filled the spot and will be performing at The Carrot tonight (9351 118th ave).
Enjoy a medieval mid-summer night at The Carrot with Thomas Mead and his acoustic guitar and lute.

Feel free to embed the video on your own blog, your Facebook profile, wherever.
And speaking of Facebook, if you haven’t RSVP’d to our Facebook event yet, please take a moment to join us there. You can find the Facebook event for Deep Freeze at …

We also need your help with this!
We would like to give each of the little folk a handful of treats. This is where you come in – if you are able to donate a bag of candy to the Carrot so they can be passed on, that would be very much appreciated. We will be handing out the candy as soon as the doors open on Friday evening, so please have it at the Carrot before that time.
