Hard Luck Cafe and NOOM

Port Washington’s Landmark on Main Street will again go Just Wild About Harry on Tuesday, December 3, at 7:30pm, as nearly three dozen of Long Island’s top musicians and songwriters will perform the music of Harry Chapin, the late Grammy-Award-winning singer-songwriter and social activist, on the stage of the Jeanne Rimsky Theater. While this will be a ticketed event, all revenues above the cost of producing the show will be donated to Long Island Cares, the food bank founded by Chapin. A minimum $20 donation per ticket is suggested, although additional donations are greatly appreciated.  Long Island Cares will also be collecting non-perishable food donations.
