About The Event

For the second time, Meera Gandhi, The Giving Back Foundation & UWC New York invite you to join them for a benefit concert for the United World College Refugee Initiative at the Gandhi residence in the Upper East Side. (Exact Address provided after RSVP). If you came for our 1st concert in 2017 you know it was one for the ages; if you didn't, you missed out so get a ticket for this one before they run out!

New Caracas, together with Colombian singer-songwriter Alea, will present a song cycle inspired in the Latin American Diaspora, particularly, the Venezuelan migration crisis. The music of New Caracas, a project created and led by guitarist and composer Luis D'Elias, is anchored in the rhythms and traditions of South America, whilst embracing modern harmonies and contemporary songwriting, to elevate the musical inspiration found in the native rhythms of Venezuela, Colombia, Peru, Brazil, and Argentina

Tickets are $25 for adults, and $15 for students. All ticket proceeds will be donated!

Your donation will go towards a scholarship for 1 of 100 new refugee scholars coming into the UWC system next fall
