After concerts in South Carolina on March 13th and Georgia on March 15th, Kearns travels to Dallas for a St. Patrick's Day concert at the historic Majestic Theater, benefiting the Jesuit College Preparatory School.

Sunday, March 18th, Kearns returns to "The Official Opera House of Texas," The Grand 1984 Opera House in Galveston for a concert in collaboration with Wexford, Inc., a U.S. nonprofit. Additional sponsors are University of St. Thomas, William J. Flynn Center for Irish Studies, and CultureMap. Ongoing concerts with Kearns assist Wexford in providing free online autism resources in English and Spanish, which have already been accessed by individuals across the U.S. and 15 other countries.

On March 24th, Kearns performs another concert with Wexford in Wilton, CT. The concert, co-sponsored by Canine Training and Behavioral Services, will salute their Therapy Dog Program supporting individuals with special needs, including autism. Wilton High School's young men's choir will make a special appearance at the concert.

March 21st, Kearns sings at Williamsburg, VA, and at the Katharine Hepburn Cultural Arts Center in Old Saybrook, CT, on March 25th.

Kearns was honored to accept an invitation from the John F. Kennedy Presidential Library to perform on March 27th at a Forum co-sponsored by the University of Massachusetts Boston celebrating Irish Heritage. Kearns remarked, "Being from County Wexford, I feel privileged to sing in President Kennedy's Library. His family's roots are also in Wexford, and I have performed memorials for him in Ireland."

In addition to touring solo and with The Irish Tenors, Kearns is in demand on international opera stages, receiving stellar reviews. Because "giving back" is a strong focus for him, Kearns spends considerable time singing worldwide for worthy causes.
