Jingle Bell Rock: Two nights of music to benefit Village Project

‘Twas the night after Christmas … and it’s time to throw off your ‘kerchief or cap and get out of the house to enjoy some rock 'n' roll.

Spending time with family and friends during the holidays can be merry and bright and jingly and jolly, but let’s face it, all that preparation for the big day can leave you very stressed out. What better way to let your hair down after the Christmas rush, than a night out (or two) at a local watering hole to listen to some live rock 'n' roll for a good cause.

On Friday, Dec. 26, Iced Cherry will be performing at Vosh in Lakewood for a special show to benefit the Village Project. Guest bartenders will be available from 6-8:30 p.m. with the band show starting at 9 p.m. The ticket price of $25 includes rockin’ food like meatballs, sheet pizzas, wings, a cheese board and soft drinks. Admission to Vosh ($5) is extra, and valet parking is free. 

Vosh is located at 1414 Riverside Drive. Guests may pay at the door on the evening of the fundraiser or go to the Village Project website to buy tickets in advance: ourvillageproject.com.

On Saturday, Dec. 27, the fun is at Around the Corner at 18606 Detroit Ave., Lakewood. On that evening, Ralph’s Basement will perform, with proceeds helping to further Village Project’s work of providing meals and extended care to local families experiencing cancer. In addition to supporting Village Project, your $25 donation will get you music, food and beer. Doors open at 7 p.m., with beer from 7-10 p.m., food from 8-10 p.m. and music from 8-11 p.m. A 50/50 raffle and incredible silent auction items will also be available that evening.

On behalf of Village Project, Happy Christmas to all, and to all a good night!
