Seattle's finest opera singers, accompanied by Glenda Williams & Luke Raffanti, return to Mercer Island along with local guitarist Lucas Victor and more! Enjoy an unforgettable night of Spanish canciones, romantic zarzuelas, tangos, and a silent auction to raise support for container homes and storage units for those who are unable to return to their earthquake damaged homes in Puerto Rico. Enjoy delicious latin food from our event sponsor, Mojito. Yakima Valleys Paradisos del Sol Winery and Organic Vineyards will offer their full, rich wine pours
(available for purchase with ticket or a la carte)and bottles and cases available for purchase to take home. The Mercer Island High School Spanish Club will be sponsoring a bake sale as well. Coffee and tea will be served during intermission.

Proceeds benefit families in the south who are unable to return to their damaged homes from recent earthquakes.
More about the Boriken Foundation:
In September 2017,volunteers in the Puget Sound area created the Boriken Foundation, formerly La Isla Foundation, a non-profit organization, to help respond and rebuild Puerto Rico after Hurricane Maria. We have helped individuals, families, businesses and non-profit organizations on the island to establish more sustainable methods of long-term recovery. More recently we have been helping families with food, water, blankets, hygiene products, and storage container homes for those left homeless by the earthquakes in the southern part of the island.
