'Show Olde Southworth Some Love' fundraiser, February 9
Dartmouth Cultural Center, Inc. will host a fundraiser to benefit its goal of saving the Old Southworth Library on February 9, 4-6 p.m. at Allendale Country Club, 1047 Allen Street.
The fundraiser will include wine and hors d’oeuvres, live music by Phil Zukas on the keyboard, and a silent auction.
Called “Show Olde Southworth Some Love,” event organizers plan to share their goals of protecting and restoring Old Southworth, preserving the historic sense of place of Padanaram Village, and enriching community life through educational cultural activities.
Activities the group hopes to bring to the currently vacant building would include small workshops, art classes, craft demonstrations led by local artists, artisans, and historians, and a display space for talented members to exhibit their work.
Proceeds from the event will help the group cover costs associated with renting the building, located at 404 Elm Street, from the Town of Dartmouth. The building has remained vacant since 2015, when Dartmouth Natural Resources Trust moved into a new headquarters building on Chase Road.
Standard tickets are $25. Friend tickets are $50, and Patron tickets are $100. Tickets can be purchased online at DartmouthCulturalCenterInc.org.
