Organizers of Carolina HopeFest have announced the first few artists for this year's event, to be held Saturday, August 30, at Koka Booth Amphitheatre in Cary.Colbie Caillat, Edwin McCain, Raleighite Thad Cockrell and Alli Rogers are all scheduled to perform. We'll keep you posted as additional performers are announced. Tickets are available now through Ticketmaster and the venue box office.
We've gone to this event the past couple of years and had a really good time. Not only is it a fun day full of music from both local and national acts, they put the show on for an incredibly worthy cause.
The event raises money for Beacon of Hope, a group based out of Nairobi, Kenya, that helps women and girls affected by AIDS learn skills that allow them to make money and support themselves and their families. Items made by women at Beacon of Hope, including beautiful woven handbags and rugs, are available for sale at the event.
