Port Jefferson, NY – On Sunday, July 1 from 7-9pm, a “Music on the Bounty” fundraiser is planned to benefit the Long Island Music and Entertainment Hall of Fame, and the creation of Long Island’s newest state of the art music museum.

This limited seating event will take place aboard the HMS Bounty in Port Jefferson harbor, the original ship used in the classic movie Mutiny on the Bounty as well as Pirates of the Caribbean and so many others.

Tickets are $65 per person, and limited to 140 people. Tickets include a tour of the ship, and a cocktail party featuring live music, hors d’oeuvres, and a beer and wine station.
