bye-bye grace, hello 29: a benefit party


If you're in Southern California, here's an event I'm asking you to come out and support... My friend Angela is throwing a birthday party. Not just any birthday party -- a joint going-away party with her friend Grace. But not just any birthday/going-away party. It's a fundraiser benefiting PATH (People Assisting the Homeless) and 511 - Santa Ana's Creative Space: Bye-Bye Grace, Hello 29!

It's a party, people. Come out and support the community, the arts and social justice. There will be food, friends, dancing and live performances. It's all happening Saturday, August 15, 4:00-10:00pm at 5Eleven - Santa Ana's Creative Space. Some details:

Angela's a dear friend, and she knows how to throw a party. And this is the best kind of party -- where your money goes to a great cause. It's going to be a good time, so make some plans to be there. And bring a friend... or make some new friends at the party. For more information visit the party website here.
