Sedon, AZ — If you’ve wanted to help after the recent flooding but didn’t know how—or if a busy schedule or physical limitations have kept you from shoveling mud on the front lines—here is your opportunity. On Saturday, November 21st, from 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM, the Sedona Library is hosting the Sedona Verde Valley UPLIFT! Flood Recovery Fundraiser, featuring a vibrant lineup of live music, a Silent Disco, an energetic dance party, and an exciting drawing, with all donations going to help residents devastated by the recent flooding.
The live entertainment kicks off at 10:00 AM in the courtyard with a stellar showcase of local talent. The hourly schedule begins with Sugarmoon at 10:00 AM, followed by Patrick Ki at 11:00 AM, Abigail Earthshine Fischer at 12:00 PM, Fiddler on the Rock—Tyler Carson at 1:00 PM, Reno & Sheila McCormick at 2:00 PM, and Shaeri Richards at 3:00 PM. The celebration then moves inside for a big dance party in the Community Room from 3:30 PM to 5:00 PM, hosted by DJ Pinktastic, Michelle Grimm, (suggested donation of $25.00 for the dance), where silent auction winners will be announced.
Inside the Library lobby, guests can also experience a Silent Disco alongside tables filled with curated gift baskets for a special drawing. Attendees can purchase drawing tickets and place them into the containers corresponding to the specific baskets they hope to win, with all winners announced live during the afternoon dance party.
With a suggested donation of $20, attendees can also contribute via cash, Zelle, or checks made out to SAVCO-Flood Relief, knowing that all suggested donations for the day and silent auction funds will go directly to the relief fund. Every contribution will help provide immediate relief for friends and neighbors who have lost everything or are still dealing with mud, water damage, and a lack of resources.
Event organizer-producer Shondra Jepperson said, “My huge thanks go to the musicians who said yes to sharing their time and talents. My immediate production team, Tyler Carson (‘Fiddler on the Rock’) and Michelle Grimm (DJ Pinktastic), along with Milly Harmon and Tasha Spuches from Community Library Sedona, have worked at the speed of light to make this happen. Our deepest thanks also go to Sedona Dance Project, Sefton Engineering Consultants, Kaycee Young, Suzie Schomaker (Red Rock Lock), Helen Jarnes (Sedona Women), Al Comello, the City of Sedona, our dedicated volunteers, the countless businesses and individuals who continue to donate to our silent auction, and SAVCO-Flood Relief.
