Fête will highlight jazz by the Ryan Cross Trio, just returning from a national tour on its way to becoming the most recognized jazz band on the West Coast.
PMHC, an affiliate of Five Acres http://www.5acres.org child and family services agency, has provided quality mental health services to low-income people without access to affordable care since 1965. It serves more than 500 families and individuals annually.
“The emotional support and guidance we offer are a lifeline for those who often have nowhere else to turn for help when problems overwhelm them,” said David Swanson-Hollinger, executive director of PMHC. “We are particularly pleased with our First Offender partnership with the Pasadena Police Department, a 10-year-old alliance that helps non-violent youth and their families break the cycle of early delinquent behavior.”
Fête features signature wine and canapé tasting at the famed redwhite+bluezz, one of L.A.’s foremost jazz clubs, featuring cutting-edge cuisine and live music nightly. The evening also includes a silent auction. Individual ticket prices begin at $100. Sponsorships are still available.
