Albert Music Hall: Back to our Roots - PCS Archive Benefit

Join us for a special fundraising event to support the Pinelands Cultural & Historical Preservation Society (PCS) archive. The unique event will feature live music, special guests, stories from the past, and an update on current archive projects. The afternoon will include performances by Redbird, Billy T Midnight, Billy Penn & The Inside Drivers, and Josh Werner & Friends.

** Some details are still unfolding, so check back for updates. **

The funds raised will help support ongoing projects including the digitization of the archive's extensive historic audio and video recordings, the preservation of photographs and documents, and the acquisition of equipment and supplies needed to protect and organize the collection. Visitors will also learn about recent milestones, including contributions from the PCS archives to the Bruce Springsteen Archives & Center for American Music, as well as current projects, future goals, and some of the fascinating discoveries and stories that have emerged from the collection.
