Cynthia MacLeod & Gordon Belsher in concert

Don't miss this special performance as one of EAC's most popular musical duos returns for a Prince Edward Island-style kitchen party! Cynthia and Gordon are looking forward to bringing their rollicking, good time foot-stomping, hand-clapping music to the arts center with this concert and we can't to see them play together again.
