8th Anniversary Celebration of Chewstick

The Chewstick Foundation will be holding the 8th Anniversary Celebration of the Chewstick Movement on January 1, 2011 at the Spinning Wheel Entertainment Complex on Court Street.

The 8th Anniversary Celebration will not only highlight Bermudian talent and bring people from all walks of life together but will also serve as a fundraising event to support Chewstick’s expanding facility on the corner of Court and Elliot Street. The new facility will allow Chewstick to permanently house programs for artist development, community outreach and cultural enrichment and ultimately become Bermuda’s premier destination for live entertainment and local culture. They are seeking to raise $50,000 from their anniversary event for this specific project.

Celebrations will begin with a Patrons Reception, sneak peak at the new Chewstick Neo-Griot Lounge and Cafe from 7pm until 9 pm. Festivities will then move across the street to The Spinning Wheel Entertainment Complex for the anniversary show where 8 artists will perform as a showcase to highlight Chewstick’s brightest, newest and most promising talents: Joy T. Barnum, Aden Peets, Stephan Johnstone, Tiffany Paynter, K.A.S.E., Jammin’, Canjelae and D’Warning are all scheduled to perform. Following this, there will be a limited open mic and good vibes when the djs takeover and the dancing begins.

Chewstick has been going strong these past eight years, due largely to the support of those who believe in the Movement and the artists it has been established to support. Tickets for the 8th Anniversary Celebrations will be sold for $30 (General) and $150 (Patron) and are available between 9am and 5pm at The Chewstick Headquarters on the corner of Court Street and Elliot Street, or contacting them at 292 2439 or emailing info@chewstick.org.
