The Steveston Buddhist Temple is celebrating its 50th Anniversary at the present location. To celebrate the occasion, we are proud to present a special evening with Internationally renown Inspirational Celtic Singer Ms. Denise Hagan. Denise has performed concerts globally and was the opening act for Shania Twain, when Ms. Twain performed in Ireland. Denise draws inspiration for her songs from her own life experiences. Twice a survivor of bone cancer, Denise has expressed how the inner voice saved her life during times of darkness. With laughter and joy, an evening with Denise is sure to inspire those who join us. Though a resident of Steveston for the past three years, this will be the first time that Denise will be performing a concert here in Richmond. An opportunity you will definitely not want to miss!!
Proceeds from the concert will be shared, with half going to help the temple 50th Anniversary project of building a new Handicap washroom on site, and the other half going to Feed-U-Cate 38, the school program to ensure that no kids in Richmond go hungry, by providing breakfast or lunch at our public schools for those in need.
