ANNE LEISAWITZ, Renowned Pianist, preformed a benefit concert in October at Church of The Apostles UCC, 1850 Marietta Avenue, Lancaster.

     Anne Leisawitz has had a multi-faceted career as a performer, educator, and composer. She has performed with many Central Pennsylvania orchestras, been an artist-in-residence at Franklin & Marshall College, and has been an adjunct Music Instructor at Harrisburg Area Community College since 1990. Ms. Leisawitz states, “I believe that music, being the most abstract of all art forms, has those ‘magical’ ingredients that can lead to world peace and brotherhood amongst all peoples.” To this end, she is now devoting her musical career to performing concerts that benefit those in need.  Anne's selection of classical and popular music was enjoyed by all.

     The free will offering received at the concert was generously donated to The Arc of Lancaster County.  Our special thanks to out to Anne and Church of The Apostles for supporting The Arc.
