Prior to his Sept. 24 concert at the Hard Rock Live at Etess Arena at the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Atlantic City, Ringo Starr will display more than 40 works of his art at an exhibition at the resort, Sept. 21-23. Signed copies of his 2020 book, “Painting is My Madness Too: The Art of Ringo Starr,” will be available as well.
Proceeds will benefit the Los Angeles-based Lotus Foundation, which supports a variety of causes related to health issues, substance abuse, domestic violence, homelessness and animals in need.
Starr, 82, will be supported at his Atlantic City concert by his All-Starr Band, currently featuring Edgar Winter, Colin Hay, Steve Lukather, Hamish Stuart, Warren Ham and Gregg Bissonette. For tickets, visit Ticketmaster.com.
The tour has already stopped in New Jersey once this year, coming to the Count Basie Center for the Arts in Red Bank on June 10, though Winter had to miss the show because of COVID.
