A Night of Giving Thanks and Getting Drinks

Wednesday, November 26th, 2014, Kress Live is teaming up with Biloxi Bay Chamber and Mississippi Mental Health this Thanksgiving Eve to bring you ‘A Night of Giving Thanks and Getting Drinks’ featuring Big Sam’s Funky Nation. We ask that everyone please bring in canned goods, hats, gloves, and/or scarves as donations towards Gulf Coast Women’s Center for Nonviolence. Those who donate five items or more will gain free entry for the evening.

The Gulf Coast Women’s Center for Nonviolence opened as a safe house in 1977, providing help to victims of domestic violence and sexual assault. Since then, the Center has grown to be the largest, most comprehensive program in the State of Mississippi. More than 20,500 women, children, and men have received services through shelter and non-residential programs since it opened. Approximately 12,000 children, adolescents, and adults attend violence prevention sessions annually.

Come jam with us and become mesmerized by the groovy New Orleans sounds of Big Sam’s Funky Nation. The band is led by the trombone powerhouse, Big Sam Williams. Big Sam refuses to let the audience sit still. Between the band’s solos, Big Sam’s signature dance moves and his distinctive trombone riffs, the energy level is high voltage when his band takes the stage.

Let’s all gather together for a night of good times, good people, and great sounds while we give back to our community! For more information on all of our upcoming events, please visit our website at www.kresslive.com or our Facebook link https://www.facebook.com/events/1512260462354595/
