The EventJoin us for a night of music as The Vincent Pezzella Scholarship Fund presents its first ever Music Benefit! The event will feature Shameless and another surprise local band! There will also be food trucks, merchandise and more!

This benefit honors the late Vincent J Pezzella and all the proceeds of this benefit go directly to the Vincent Pezzella Scholarship Fund whose mission aims to fund creative and performing arts throughout Fairfield County as a way of honoring the legacy of the late Vincent J. Pezzella. As funding for the arts grows harder to come by, we hope to provide a springboard for artistic passion among young people so Vinny's memory can endure.

Our WhyVinny was tragically killed by a drunk driver in March of 2016. He was 24 years old.A lover of music, Vinny was an avid percussionist and a lively performer. Vinny's fascination with music began at the age of 8 when he joined a children's band camp and fell in love with the drums. Suitably, helping young musicians seemed like the perfect mission for this organization.

In the wake of his passing, the Pezzella family generously established a scholarship for Trumbull High School students planning to pursue a career in the performing arts. All our fundraising efforts go directly to the kids so we truly appreciate your generosity!
