S.O.S. Save Old Stiltsville Fundraiser
Nearly every Miami local knows about Stiltsville: a cluster of wooden structures built on pilings situated on the sandbanks of Biscayne Bay a mile south of Cape Florida. This week, Kush Hospitality Group will host a raffle fundraiser in support of the site. The Stiltsville Trust will raise donations through raffle ticket sales at three price points ($20, $50, and $100) with 100 percent of all proceeds benefiting the trust. The event will be held at Kush's Coconut Grove location, where a $10 general admission ticket includes passed hors d'oeuvres and a draft beer and/or a glass of sparkling wine. Thanks to a sponsorship Brugal 1888, Kush will donate a portion of proceeds from sales of a specialty cocktail — the "S.O.S.," made with Brugal 1888 rum, Ancho Reyes chile liqueur, lime, and pineapple — to the fundraising initiative. The event includes a curated photo gallery of vintage Stiltsville photographs and a presentation from an advocate who'll provide background on the history of the floating homes. 6 to 10 p.m. Tuesday, May 3, at 2911 Grand Ave., Miami; 305-456-5723.Tickets cost $10 per person at eventbrite.com.
