'Raise The Roof' With 60s Music, Help The American Legion Buy A Roof

CULVER CITY, CA — The American Legion Community Post 46 is inviting people to "raise the roof" during a 60s-themed rock concert in order to raise money to replace the post's roof and and benefit a veterans music nonprofit.

“Your support will not only help the Post replace the roof but modernize it with energy efficient heating and air conditioning. The American Legion Community Post 46 has been a pillar of the community since 1924 and with this and other fundraising events we may continue to provide services to not only our community but to our veterans, our active duty and their families for another 100 years," Post 46 Commander Roy Chamberlin said.

The Raise The Roof Concert will take place April 6 at 7:30 p.m. at the American Legion Community Post 46, 5309 Sepulveda Blvd. Doors open at 6 p.m.

Andy & Renee, known locally for their performances at Torrance's Dylanfest, are set to perform.

In addition to the roof replacement, the concert will benefit Veterans National Entertainment Workshop, in support of their no-cost music workshops and free instruments for active duty military, veterans and their families.

“We are thrilled to partner with the American Legion Community Post 46 to help them replace their roof in an effort to better serve veterans, active duty and their families. The Veterans National Entertainment Workshop's (VNEW) mission is help veterans cope with challenges through music. As a member of the Post 46 Auxiliary, this is an opportunity to fulfill both our missions with a wonderful night of 60's music," VNEW cofounder Kandi Reyes said.

Tickets cost $25 in advance, $30 at the door and $10 to stream at home. For more information and to purchase tickets visit the event's website.
