Thrive Entertainment was formed by a collective of motion picture professionals looking to give back to the public after years of allowing the film industry to operate within the community. The mission spawned several additional charities including sister charities Coffee-Gives & DareToMakeAChange. This genesis enabled the organization a way to give back while undertaking a love shared by all its members, live music production. So, come out for a great night of fun and live entertainment at one of our upcoming events.
Proceeds will benefit six area non-profits, including The Children’s Village at Christian City.
A silent auction will be held throughout the evening, including items from TV shows such as The Waking Dead, The Vampire Diaries, Drop Dead Diva, Goosebumps, The Originals, and Taken 3.
