Hello Portland! It's time for ch ch ch ch ch cherry bomb!
On April 5th, 350 people attended The Runaways Portland Premiere and Rock 'n' Roll Camp for Girls benefit with Cherie Currie at the Hollywood Theater. Thank you to Cherie, Hollywood Theater, KGON, The Ambassador, our board of directors, and everyone who attended for your support!---Here's an archive of the event with text from our website and photos still to come! This movie is rated R and contains mature content including violence and drug use. The Rock 'n' Roll Camp for Girls regrets that this prevents many of our Campers from attending the event. This is a story of women who broke barriers and struggled to find their own voice in a male dominated industry - paving the way for future generations of female rockers. “We are pleased to be a part of The Runaways premiere and are grateful for the support of the Rock ‘n’ Roll Camp for Girls. The mission of RNRC4G is not to create rock-stars, but to create self-assured and empowered women that can succeed in any endeavor they choose. We feel the story of The Runaways speaks to the need for this program in our society even today.”-- Amy Sabin, RnRC4G Board of Directors Co-Chair Monday, April 5 7 pm Hollywood Theater 4122 NE Sandy Blvd. Portland, OR 97212 $15 (all sales benefit RnRC4G) This special benefit features a q&a with Cherie Curry of The Runaways, and raffle prizes including movie swag, autographed items from The Runaways, and a chance to meet Joan Jett at her upcoming concert at Chinook Winds!
