Internationally acclaimed guitarist Pat Martino and his band will be appearing in concert for the 4th Annual Jazz Bridge Benefit on Sunday April 25th from 5-9 p.m. at the Collingswood Community Center, 30 W. Collings Ave, Collingswood NJ. Prior to the concert, there will be a screening of the critically received documentary Martino Unstrung and a Q&A with the guitarist, who will talk about his many musical connections to the Philadelphia area.

Unknown to many, Pat Martino was involved in the start of Jazz Bridge, a nonprofit that assists Greater Philadelphia area jazz and blues musicians in crisis, when the late pianist Eddie Green became terminally ill. He offered to help the organization in any way he could and has graciously lent his support in the past.

Tickets are $50 and the price includes a light buffet. Alcohol will be served, but is separate from the ticket price. Seating is VERY limited (about 160), so get your tickets early.
