“Love Is What We Need” Benefit Concert

Join us for a night of Music and Comedy featuring Watsonville’s own Andy Vargas, vocalist from the legendary band Santana. The evening includes a special acoustic performance by Javier Vargas and AVF students; Special presentations from Dominican Grammy-nominated artist Pavel Nuñez; comedian Frankie Quinones “Creeper” and other special guests.

Andy Vargas Foundation’s mission is to inspire, educate and mentor underserved youth who strive for a career in the music industry. The Andy Vargas Foundation achieves its mission by providing youth access to musical instruments and music education classes; music writing and publishing courses; and financial support to continue a higher education in the field of music and arts.

Proceeds from tickets sales, merchandise, and drink sales benefit the Andy Vargas Foundation scholarship program for Pajaro Valley School District with a small portion supporting “Project Xmas Dinner for Pedernales,” in the Dominican Republic (Christmas food basket distribution to the poor). The Andy Vargas Foundation is grateful for the support in the Dominican Republic and their community members, for their generous support in “Love Is What We Need” filming project.
