YAKIMA -- Cowiche Canyon Conservancy is going Irish.

The local conservation group, which oversees Cowiche Canyon and Snow Mountain, is offering up a chance to listen and dance at a fundraising concert Aug. 15.

The event features Noel Hill, a well-known concertina player from Ireland.

It begins at 7 p.m. at the Seasons Performance Hall, 101 N. Naches Ave. Tickets cost $25 for adults and $15 for 12 and under.

Hill comes from County Clare on the west coast of Ireland, where the concertina tradition is strong.

Concert organizers say that the concertina is enjoying a resurgence in popularity, with Hill at the forefront of the movement.
