The Fort Smith Museum of History Pardi Gras is set for Saturday, February 10, 2018 at 6:00 pm at the Shipley Baking Company, 52 South 7th Street in downtown Fort Smith.  The event is the largest annual fundraiser for the museum and always a great party! 

 

Tickets are $125 per person.  Tables for eight sell for $1,000.  Sponsorships are available. 

 

The evening begins at 6:00 pm with cocktails and the music of Cutthroat Trout followed by dinner with cuisine by 21 West End, a live auction and dancing to the Rockets, a premier Arkansas band from Little   Rock.   "Almost 500 years of rock ‘n’ roll playing experience on stage, the Rockets are an award winning ensemble performing the soundtrack to your life, the top hits from the 60s, 70s, 80s, 90s and the best of today’s music, these eleven musicians will rock you like you ain’t been rocked."

 

Voted as the Best Local Band by the Arkansas Times Readers' Poll Awards for 1997 through 2007 and again in 2009, the Rockets will retire soon, so this is one of last chances to experience this fantastic band.  The Rockets are nothing if not versatile. Nine different lead vocalists contribute to an extremely colorful music palette, ranging from Lady Gaga to Frank Sinatra, from Gloria Gaynor to Lynyrd Skynyrd, and from Elvis Presley to Maroon 5.  

 

Cutthroat Trout is enjoying extreme success filling every venue they play. Their reverence for classics, innovative arrangements of pop tunes and period originals keep audiences coming back for more. Their unmatched level of professionalism, musicianship and tight three part vocal harmonies are quite refreshing. Don't miss your opportunity to take a step back in time and relive some of the best music ever recorded with Cutthroat Trout.

 

The live auction offers unique parties with new items added for 2018. 

 

Call the museum for reservations:  479-783-7841.  A sell-out is expected-call soon!
