The annual Green Tie Event is a fun way to kick off the St. Patrick's Day Season. This dinner and charity auction raises funds for the Ward Irish Music Archives which houses the largest public collection of Irish music in America. Through the generous support of Green Tie attendees, the Archives have expanded their collections, created educational and entertaining exhibits, and produced historically valuable projects like the Dunn Family Collection microsite, the Francis O'Neill Cylinders CD, and the Milwaukee Irish Fest Celtic Rock Compilation CD. Tickets are $100 a piece.Call 414-476-3378 to reserve your ticket.
