Love, Hope House
Okay, so technically, this one's not a fundraiser. Instead, it's our way of showing our love for the community that supports us all year long. And it takes place every year around Valentine's Day.
Past "Love, Hope House" concerts have featured the Charles Darden Band and the Latin Jazz Company. The event is funded through the support of Hope House's Board of Directors and corporate sponsors. Use of the Granby Theater is donated by The Wright Companies.

80's Mardi Gras at Premiere!
Hope House Foundation and the Noblemen celebrated Mardi Gras-Thriller style in February of this year. Everyone came dressed in their favorite 80's look and danced the night away from hits of the era of Molly Ringwald and Max Headroom.
All proceeds from the party benefited those in need. Hope House and the Noblemen plan to host another 80's night in February 2009! Check back for more information as it gets closer.
Hopestock
Since the 1990s, Hope House Foundation has hosted not only great visual arts events, but also fantastic musical entertainment. From our Hopestock Concerts to our Jazz for Hope series, the agency has hosted diverse local and national musical artists. We brought Joan Osborne to the Naro Theatre in Ghent in 1995, then Dar Williams in 1996. We've featured local crooner Charles Darden and his band at the Granby Theatre. Ann Hampton Callaway, Mandorico, and the Yellowjackets were just a few of the jazz talents which made up the Jazz for Hope concerts. And every event raised money to benefit Hope House Foundation.
We're currently planning a new music event for 2009!
