TRAVERSE CITY — Veterans for Peace, Chapter 50 will hold a silent auction/jazz concert fundraiser at Northwestern Michigan College, Saturday, June 21, 2014 from 7–10 p.m.

This fundraiser will be held at the Dennos Museum Center and is in conjunction with the exhibit of contemporary Chinese photographers and the sculpts of Seungmo Park.
