Mockingbird Station to host Cause for Celebration series

by PegNews wire

Mockingbird Station will introduce a new event to the holiday line-up this year: Cause for Celebration, a variety of fun, community-oriented events every Wednesday evening during the holidays (except Thanksgiving eve), each one open to the public and benefitting a different local charity.

The first Cause for Celebration event, themed “Family Night,” is the evening of Wednesday, November 4. Mockingbird Station will partner with the Dallas Public Library’s Every Child Ready to Read program to host a free, fun, pre-screening early literacy mini-workshop at 6:30 p.m., followed by an outdoor screening of The Wizard of Oz at 7 p.m.

Admission for each family is the donation of at least one new or slightly used book, which will benefit the Every Child Ready to Read program. In addition, that evening from 5-9 p.m., Vapiano will offer “kids eat free” to all families who show their books that they’ll be donating to the program.

“The idea behind our weekly Cause for Celebration events is to support and help raise funds for these local charities, while also providing a fun event for our shoppers to take part in,” said Pam Baker, general manager of Mockingbird Station. “Any way that we can give back to our community while providing value for our customers is a win/win.”
