The Snow Ball
A LUPEC Boston Winter Prom
Silvertone, 69 Bromfield St, Boston
Monday, February 4, 2013, 7-11 PM
|
On February 4, 2013 from 7-11pm LUPEC Boston will transform the back room at Silvertone into an "Under the Sea"-themed Prom. The night will be a whimsical evening of dancing, drinks, and awkward slow dancing, all to benefit women's charities On the Riseand The Breast Cancer Fund.
THE SNOW BALL will be LUPEC's second annual winter prom, a party and clothing drive designed to alleviate the winter doldrums for Boston-area cocktail lovers while collecting clothing and raising money for women's charities. Beneficiaries this winter are On the Rise, a Cambridge-based non-profit that supports the initiative and strength of women living in crisis or homelessness, and cash donations for The Breast Cancer Fund, a non-profit working to translate the growing body of scientific evidence linking breast cancer and environmental exposures into public education and advocacy campaigns to protect women's health and reduce breast cancer risk.
Entry to THE SNOW BALL costs $25 and will be granted on a first come, first served basis. 100% of ticket proceeds will be donated to The Breast Cancer Fund. Clothing donations will be given to On the Rise.
Guests who bring clothing and other items deemed acceptable for donation (to be specified so stay tuned) will receive tickets for complimentary drinks commensurate with their donation. $5 spiked punch and $7 cocktails will be available for purchase. Light snacks will be served and celebrity bartenders Josh Childs and Beau Sturm will hold forth behind the stick.
As with all LUPEC events, dressing up is encouraged. Guests are invited to come in creative formal prom attire, and to dress to impress. Prizes will be awarded for "Best Dressed."

Let's Raise the Roof with a night of music to kickstart Higher Ground Farm!
At the center of the restaurant industry and food policy, LUPEC Boston member emeritus Courtney Hennessey and John Stoddard are keeping food local at a much higher level. Together they make up Higher Ground Farm, a for-profit roof top farm coming soon to Boston's seaport. To kick off this big endeavor they are throwing a big bash to raise some seed money to launch their first growing season in Spring 2013. The line up includes musical performances by: Lake Street Dive, Kings, Kellen Zakula and My Gay Banjo lending their talents in support of Higher Ground Farm. 100% of the proceeds go towards operations and installation for Spring of 2013, and plantings for an organically grown diverse array of fruits and vegetables will be ready for harvest this fall for the Boston community. Located on the roof of the Boston Design Center, a 55,000 square foot space, will designate Higher Ground Farm as the second largest open-air roof farm in the world. The party is sure to be a barnstomper, so bring your dancin' shoes! There will also be a raffle if you're feelin' lucky and a cash bar if you need some liquid courage to boogie down. BUY TICKETS NOW!
