Join us at Ohavi Zedek for a special benefit concert in support of Full Circle Preschool, featuring acclaimed Vermont soprano Mary Bonhag. Celebrated for her “supple expressive voice” and extraordinary musicianship, Mary brings a rare blend of artistry, warmth, and spiritual depth to every performance.

Equally at home in sacred music and contemporary works, she has performed with renowned ensembles including the American Symphony Orchestra, Vermont Symphony Orchestra, and Upper Valley Baroque, and has been featured on NPR’s Performance Today.

Through a program of moving and uplifting music, this intimate evening will celebrate the power of song to nurture community, connection, and joy—values at the heart of Full Circle Preschool’s mission.
