Let Your Light Shine! It’s a Park Avenue Fun’draiser

Tickets are available now for Casino Night at the Vapors Live, the Light Uptown Fun’draiser.

Attention all you Bootleggers, Flappers, Raccoon Coat wearers, and Ragtime Fans! Join us as we journey back in time to an era of prosperity, indulgence, and carefree living at the Vapors Live nightclub.

Sunday, July 24, 2022 – or is it 1922 ???- the public is invited to share a night of Hot Springs’ Headliners every bit as talented as those whose names appeared on the marquee at the Vapors in the early days. Enjoy live music, a silent auction featuring jewelry, art, nights on the town, and more!

Just like the Vapors in its heyday, the casino will be open if you’re feeling lucky, and an assortment of libations will be available at the cash bar. But BEWARE, the “Fashion Fuzz” will be on duty slyly judging your preferred Roaring 20’s attire (Zoot Suit anyone?) and deciding who takes home the prize for the best costume. Or, just come as you are, and enjoy the food, fantasy, and fun.

All proceeds from this night of revelry will go toward adding to the beautiful Central Park-style street lights that can be seen lining portions of Uptown Park Avenue. 

“We have worked hard to install rain gardens, crosswalks, ADA accessible playground and renovated sidewalks, David F. Watkins Family Park, and so much more,” stated Hannah Mills, chair of the LightUptown Committee. “But we aren’t finished yet and your participation can move us even farther along the path of returning Uptown Park Avenue to the beautiful neighborhood of its past and ensuring a future that’s even better.”

YOU can see YOUR name in lights, too. A $500 donation or more will put your name, or your business’s name, on a plaque on one of the lights, and a $5000 donation places your name on your very own light. Doors open at 5:30 PM. The show begins at 6:30 PM. VIP seating: $75. General admission tickets: $50. For tickets visit www.eventbrite.com/o/paca-hot-springs-47080813773, or for more information, call Hannah at 501-282-1872.
