Benefit Concert Announced

By Kelly Mahan Herrick   |   March 15, 2018

On Tuesday, March 13, it was announced that singer Katy Perry will hold a  concert to benefit the community recovering from the Thomas Fire and mudslide, which includes Cold Spring School and its music program. The concert will be at the Santa Barbara Bowl on Saturday, May 19, at 7 pm. Locals-only presale tickets will be available in person at the Santa Barbara Bowl box office this Thursday, March 15, at 11 am and online after 7 pm.

“I am extremely grateful to Katy Perry and her team for supporting her hometown and helping to allow music to continue to flourish through the halls of our school. As we all know, music heals and our students and community will be stronger as a result of Katy Perry’s efforts,” said Dr. Amy Alzina, principal/superintendent of Cold Spring School. 

Dr. Alzina announced last month that the District is expecting a 9-percent decrease in funding for the 2018-19 school year, which puts extra-curricular programming such as the music program at risk. The school is expected to lose roughly $485,000 from its budget.
