✨ A Night in Philadelphia: The Birthplace of Freedom
📅 March 21, 2026
Join Miners Hall Museum for an all-new spring fundraiser featuring great food, lively music, creative fun, and a few surprises inspired by the city where American independence was born.
This year’s celebration will feature “Stars, Stripes, & Swing – A Vintage American Soirée,” a 1940s-inspired evening that pays tribute to the Greatest Generation, thoughtfully reimagined for 2026 as we celebrate America’s 250th anniversary and Pittsburg’s 150th. Expect an unforgettable night filled with patriotic spirit, elegance, and timeless music.
We are proud to welcome The Little Swing Men, an offshoot of the popular local group The Little Green Men, as our featured entertainment. Their lively mix of classic swing, jazz, and big-band favorites is sure to transport you back in time—and get you out on the dance floor.
