In the spirit of the rent party tradition, which offered a DIY solution for families facing eviction in the 1920's, playing a major role in the historic development of jazz and blues music, Lighthouse presents the 7th Annual Rent Party. The evening will feature tours of historic Meadow Brook Hall, dinner under their Garden Tent, and music from some of the best local jazz performers. If you are unfamiliar with Meadow Brook Hall, it is a Tudor revival style mansion built in the mid-1920s by the heiress to the Dodge automaker fortune, Matilda Dodge Wilson. Please consider partnering with us this year to help raise critical funds for our housing and shelter programs, which assist thousands of struggling families each year.
