The community is invited to attend this year’s annual Celtic Christmas concert, “WinterSky,” at the Orcas Island Community Church on Saturday, Dec. 6.

Special guest guitarist Phil Keaggy is often voted as one of the world’s top three guitarists in finger-style as well as finger-picking by “Guitar Player Magazine” readers’ polls. Keaggy will be joined by returning island favorites Windham Hill keyboardist and vocalist Jeff Johnson, violinist Wendy Goodwin and, all the way from Dublin, Irish flutist Brian Dunning.

The program will showcase solo material from Keaggy (“The Wind and the Wheat,” “The Master and The Musician”) along with music from his collaboration with keyboardist Johnson (“Frio Suite,” “WaterSky”).

The concert will be held twice: 4 p.m. and 7 p.m. As is traditional, there is no charge for the concert, but donations are welcome. The suggested donation is $20 per person, and a donation box will be in the foyer. For more information or to register, visit www.OrcasChurch.org, or call 376-6422.
