Niagara musicians and comedians will take to their webcams for a livestream fundraiser Friday.

Mainly Niagara, an online site started by Niagara Falls resident Sheri Hawkins, will put the spotlight on local talent for the two-hour show starting at 7 p.m.

“I desperately need to do something positive,” said Hawkins, who lives across the street from Greater Niagara General Hospital. “There’s a palpable tension in the air and there’s a capability of (things) getting a bit cagey.

“I’ve really connected with the artist community in Niagara Falls, and it’s like, ‘Man, all these people just lost their jobs.'”
