ANDERSONVILLE — Who could possibly say no to drinking for a good cause?

From 7 p.m. to 10 p.m. Friday, Andersonville home decor store Brimfield will do its part in raising funds to replace the neighborhoods beloved water tower — which sat on the roof of the Swedish American Museum at 5211 N. Clark St. before it was taken down following a harsh winter in 2014 — by hosting Cocktails on Clark in its event space at 5219 N. Clark St.

The evening will feature live music from the VandaBobs, plus small bites from My Private Chef, Giordano's, Lady Gregory's and complimentary cocktails from Stolen and In Fine Spirits. All proceeds for the event will go to the Swedish American Museum.

The museum is just $30,000 away from reaching its goal of $150,000 to replace the iconic tower, according to the Swedish American Museum.

Tickets for the event are $50 and available here.
