Saturday: Karaoke Event & YWCA Benefit @ Wieden + Kennedy
June 21, 2010 — Julian Chadwick
Rock Out For A Great Cause
On June 26, 2010, the YWCA of Portland's Leadership Board will welcome the next generation of leaders to a night of karaoke, cocktails and conversations at Portland's Wieden + Kennedy for the second annual Offkey event. The YWCA of Greater Portland is dedicated to changing lives by empowering women and their families to achieve safety, opportunity, and independence. Last year, almost 300+ people came out to raise $25,000.
This year, I will be on the panel of karaoke judges along with other local tastemakers Dave Allen (Pampelmoose.com), David Long (choreographer), and Andi Ziesler from Bitch Magazine. The support this event has received from local vendors is spectacular. Free food, cheap drinks, great singing and music provided by Sean Bailey, voted King of the KJs by The Portland Mercury.
When: Saturday, June 26, 2010. Doors open at 8 p.m.
"American Idol" style karaoke contest begins at 9 p.m.
Where: Wieden + Kennedy, 224 NW 13th Avenue.
Cost: $25 (100% tax deductible.) To purchase tix online: http://bit.ly/9bv6wW
