On August 26th, a group of Charleston music scene veterans will join together to advocate for land conservation and raise funds for safeguarding Lowcountry landscapes. The musicians have partnered with Lowcountry Land Trust and Holy City Brewing to organize The Lowcountry Summer Sendoff, a benefit concert that will raise money for permanent land conservation efforts.
The event will take place in the Porter Room at Holy City Brewing on August 26th, 5 pm to 9 pm. The concert is family-friendly.
The Blue Pearl Caviar food truck will be on-site, and a private bar within the venue will also be available for guests to purchase drinks. In addition, Holy City Brewing is reviving its Angel Oak Pale Ale for the event and donating one dollar from every drink sold to Lowcountry Land Trust.
Raffle tickets will be available for purchase and can be used toward various prizes. Tickets are $20, and advance purchases are recommended. Purchase tickets here.
