Andrew Klein, left, rabbi of Temple Habonim in Barrington, speaks at the conclusion of the Sing Out for Peace event at the temple on the evening, of Oct. 26. The sold-out event raised money for Rhode Island For Community and Justice,

which seeks to fight bias, bigotry and racism.

The multicultural interfaith celebration featured four groups representing a variety of backgrounds. On the stage with Klein are some of the dancers and singers who performed for the benefit. To Klein’s right, wearing a red sweater, is Diane Minasian, a Temple Habonim member who organized the event.

Members of the Ruach Singers and Prism of Praise Community Gospel Choir perform together, above, during the benefit.
