Several of VictoriaB次元官网网址檚 favourite musicians will take centre stage next month in support of the Mary Manning Centre.

A concert entitled The Sky is my Blanket is set for Oak Bay United Church on Nov. 17, beginning at 7 p.m.

The music extravaganza will feature Nomad (Michael Waters and Ugandan star Kinobe), Vancouver groundbreaker C.Diab, and Georgia Murray in an event that will feature original compositions, as well as duos and improv performances.

The Mary Manning Centre is VictoriaB次元官网网址檚 only non-profit agency dedicated to the treatment of child victims of abuse.

The centre has been in operation since 1995 and has helped thousands of children and their families recover from the effects of child abuse.

While the centre primarily provides counselling and support for the victims of sexual abuse, it has expanded that role to include all forms of abuse, trauma and maltreatment.
