SUMMARY:Play It Forward 10
DESCRIPTION:Play It Forward 10 presented by PNC Bank\nJoin us for an evening with Cherry Cherry\, the premier Neil Diamond tribute\, and other musical acts at the Triple Door in Downtown Seattle. As our official 10th Play It Forward\, we’ll once again bring you the best music\, food\, and wine that Washington has to offer. \nThis year\, we honor Susan Silver with our Washington Music Icon award. Susan is perhaps best-known as the manager for Soundgarden and Alice In Chains\, or as a co-owner of the legendary Crocodile club in Seattle\, but behind the scenes\, she is true musical community builder and educator. It truly is our honor to present Susan Silver with the Washington Music Icon award during Play It Forward. \nAs always\, Play It Forward is all about the music! All tickets include hosted cocktails at the pre-party\, dinner\, wine\, and the show! Prove just how much Music Matters to you by upgrading to a VIP ticket\, which includes premium wine and seating\, plus a larger donation to Music Aid Northwest. Click here to buy tickets now! \nCOVID vaccination required to attend. Music Aid Northwest and the Triple Door will be following all CDC and Washington State COVID guidelines to ensure that our event is a safe as possible. As per the policy of the Triple Door\, all guests must provide proof of COVID vaccination at the door and a mask is required when not actively eating or drinking at a table. See the Triple Door’s COVID policy. \nIn 2020\, we were forced to cancel the event due to COVID protocols in Washington\, and still over 95% of ticket holders chose to donate the cost of their tickets to Music Aid Northwest. This outpouring of support allowed us to offer the largest round of grants for schools in our history. We thank each of you who made that possible\, but we’re excited to be back in person on March 12. In the unlikely event that we must postpone Play It Forward\, all tickets will be honored on a later date\, and we will once again allow you to transfer your ticket to a fully tax-deductible donation or receive a refund. \nTickets available online now for Play it Forward 10\nPresented by\n \nGold Sponsor
