NIU Alumni / Rockford Promise Night
Friday, Aug. 26
Join the Rockford Alumni Club and your fellow Huskies for an entertaining evening of jazz, networking, a movie screening and more!
Enjoy delicious Italian food and a Huskie-themed drink special or a refreshing pint of Dawgma from Pollyanna Brewing & Distilling while listening to the NIU Jazztet, under the direction of Reggie Thomas, as they perform a mix of classic jazz, American songbook standards and original music.
Following the Jazztet performance, stay and watch a screening of the film "School of Rock."
This event will take place on Lino's new patio space, Piazza de Battista. A portion of the food and beverage purchases will go to support NIU scholarships and Rockford Promise.
