On September 21st, The Friends of Third Place Commons hosts a benefit to celebrate the return of Saturday night music to the Commons and to raise funds for the continued support of the series. 

Third Place will celebrate the return of music on Saturday nights by showcasing some of the community’s favorite bands. The evening will begin with the big band swing of the Jet City Jazz Band. It will continue with the vintage jazz of Miss Rose and Her Rhythm Percolators. And the evening will close out with the raucous blues of The Fabulous Roof Shakers. All performance services for this evening have been donated.

This event is free of charge, but donations will gladly be accepted by Friends of Third Place Commons. 100% of all contributions will go directly to supporting the continued presence of music in the Commons. Friends of Third Place Commons is also seeking interested community partners to sponsor selected performances throughout the year.

The concert series will be under new management by Friends of Third Place Commons, a nonprofit organization founded to manage the community events in the Commons. The program will be financed by Madison Marquette Retail Services (MMRS) and through sponsorships by community partners.

“This music program has received a tremendous amount of community support and we are thrilled to see it live on in partnership with MMRS,” said Constance Perenyi, Executive Director for Friends of Third Place Commons. “We look forward to continuing our tradition of supporting local musicians and providing entertainment to the community.”

Third Place Commons is upstairs in the Lake Forest Park Towne Centre at the intersection of Bothell and Ballinger Ways, Lake Forest Park, WA 98155.  More information is available at programs@thirdplacecommons.org, 206-366-3302.
