Youth for Youth Holiday Concert to be held Dec. 3

Talented young musicians will entertain audiences while benefitting other young people.

The celebration of music, joy, and giving will be the theme for the Youth for Youth Holiday Concert to be held on Dec. 3. This heartwarming event, initiated by the talented Roxy Jones back in 2020, has grown into something truly spectacular. This year's concert promises to be a memorable experience.

This is the season as the crew breaks out the Christmas Caramel Kettle and cooks. They estimate they cut and wrapped about 800 pieces. Want some? The Youth for Youth Holiday Concert VIP tickets each come with a box of homemade caramels!

All proceeds from the concert will be donated to Nevada Partnership for Homeless Youth to help youth within our local community.

The concert will be held at Clark High School, 4291 Penwood Ave., from 4 to 6 p.m. Tickets are $10 for general admission and $30 for the VIP section. Tickets are available at Eventbrite.com.

Eco-Topia is important because it provides an opportunity for people to learn about sustainability and eco-friendliness. The event also helps to promote sustainable businesses and products. By attending Eco-Topia, people can make a positive impact on the environment.
