CEF Presents: Charles Phoenix Live Fundraiser
Join us for an unforgettable evening in support of Claremont Educational Foundation!
Come experience the one-and-only Charles Phoenix live as he brings his brand-new show, Charles Phoenix: Big Retro Road Trip 'Round the Pomona Valley, to the stage.
A Fun-Filled, Then & Now Tour of Claremont, Upland, Montclair, Ontario and Pomona.
Be Prepared for your Pomona Valley Pride to Swell like ever before!
With his keen expertise, infectious enthusiasm and keen eye for unique detail, retro pop culture humorist, Charles Phoenix shares the stories celebrating local mid-century marvels, unique architecture, classic neon sign, honored restaurants, mom & pop shop, and more! Mid-century pop culture humorist, performer, author, and collector, Charles Phoenix is known for his wildly entertaining “slide show” extravaganzas that celebrate classic and kitschy American life and style. With his trademark enthusiasm, razor-sharp wit, and eye for the delightfully retro, Charles uncovers the stories, landmarks, and local lore that make each city uniquely unforgettable.
Enjoy a lively evening of entertainment while supporting CEF and our local schools. Gather your friends, sip, snack, bid in the auction, and get ready for a retro-inspired night full of fun and community spirit!
