Monthly First Thursday Fundraiser at the Lizard Lounge

Monthly First Thursday Fundraiser at the Lizard Lounge: Music, Art, Free Widmer Beer and Kickin' Community

When: Thursday, November 6, 2008, 7 - 10 pm.

Where: Lizard Lounge, NW 14th and Irving, Portland, Oregon, (503)416-7476

Event Description: Join in on the fun at the Lizard Lounge this Thursday for their Artist Reception Party checking out art by Jason Graham, listening to The Dimes while sipping Widmer Beer, donating to Mercy Corps' programs in Northern Uganda and saving 10% on regular priced items (Not to be combined with other offers). It just can't get better than that.

Jason Graham's show, titled Riders of Nothing Nest, consists of a mixture of illustrations and paintings rendered on paper, wood, and canvas of all sizes. It showcases the range of Jason's art in both technical proficiency and style. His art will be displayed for the month of November.

The Dimes are wildy melodic, inherently quirky and known for causing breakouts of unexpected hand clapping and foot stompting among fans at their shows. Gorgeous voices over sweet guitars and phenomenal lyrics define The Dimes.
