The Children’s Aid Foundation of Nova Scotia (CAFNS) is thrilled to welcome you back to “An Evening of Wine and Song” -our signature event that raises critical funds for Nova Scotia’s most vulnerable children and youth.

We have a new name, a new venue, and an amazing new performer for this year’s event! But one thing stays the same- our wine tasting will be offered by premier wine retailer Bishop’s Cellar, with sommelier Kate Beaton introducing
each of the three wines you will be tasting!

“An Evening of Wine & Song” will take place on Thursday June1^st, 7:00pm in the Great Hall at the Cathedral Church of All Saints and our performer will be the amazing Owen ‘O’ Sound’ Lee!

He was the former Musical Director of the Nova Scotia Mass Choir and is currently the Minister of Music at the Emmanuel Baptist Church and program coordinator of the African Nova Scotia Music Association.

It is going to be an amazing evening of wine, food ,song and meeting up with old friends! Wine & beer will be available for purchase after the wine tasting ,and of course, the silent auction table! Also new this year (my favorite new thing) a debit/credit card processor!
