It was a wonderful expression of Kingston’s creatively rich and talented community which entertained an audience of close to 1500 people.  The donations will allow Joe’s MILL to help keep that creative fire alive and provide much needed support to the Food Bank..  Thanks to all the volunteers, the supporting venues, Kingston Downtown Business Improvement Area, Kingston Sound Works, Kingston Whig-Standard, Kingstonist, HC Concepts, Lila Centre, Michael Parkinson, and the Fixer.  Joe is smiling.

Team HomeGrown
