Nationally recognised composer and Saturday morning ABC Illawarra presenter, Mark Matthews, is returning to Kiama to perform his piano solos (with a musical surprise), to fundraise for disability access.
“I will be playing my musical compositions titled solos on life, love and friendship and I will be telling stories from my book, Mark My Word!, which is my memoirs of growing up in Wollongong,” Mark says.
“I am very excited to come back to beautiful Kiama, just up the road from the pink Post Office.”
The event will fundraise for disability access for the Uniting Church in Jamberoo, as they currently lack proper toilet facilities for those who require them.
Mark, who has been doing charity concerts since 2005, says it is important the Church prioritises facilities for that particular need.
In terms of the musical surprise, Mark has given The Bugle a hint – “People assume I play my own compositions…”

Kiama Uniting Church,
Manning St, 2.30-4.30pm
