Step into an unforgettable evening where music tells stories of courage, hope, and belonging. Jazz, War and the Road to Peace brings world-class musicians to the stage in celebration of World Refugee Day—a powerful tribute to those who have been forced to flee their homes and are now rebuilding their lives in our community.
This year’s performance features brilliant Ukrainian musicians—artists who found refuge in the Waterloo Region and transformed their experiences of war and displacement into deeply moving, beautifully uplifting compositions. Alongside their original works, you’ll hear iconic classical pieces centered around themes of war and peace—performed at an extraordinary level of artistry.
But this concert is more than a performance.
- It’s a celebration.
- A celebration of the journeys that bring people here.
- A celebration of the strength and talent of newcomers.
- A celebration of how—together—we create a more compassionate and connected community.
All proceeds from this event will directly support Reception House Waterloo Region as we welcome and walk alongside refugees and vulnerable newcomers. From housing and healthcare to employment and emotional healing, your support helps families begin again—safely, and with dignity.
Join us for an evening of music and meaning. Help us build a brighter future—one note, one family, one welcome at a time.
