Laramie Interfaith will bring live music and fundraising to downtown Laramie with Banding Together: A Night for Neighbors!, a benefit concert set for Saturday, February 21 at the Cowboy Saloon & Dance Hall, 108 S 2nd St, Laramie, WY 82070-3031. The event aims to marshal community support for Laramie Interfaith’s work preventing and alleviating homelessness and food insecurity.

Organizers promote the evening as a chance for the community to gather and support local services. Laramie Interfaith and Wyoming Public Media list the event time as 7:00 PM to 9:00 PM, and Wyoming Public Media uses the promotional copy, "You are invited to a special evening benefiting Laramie Interfaith on February 21 from 7:00 PM - 9:00 PM at the Cowboy Saloon and Dance Hall!" An event aggregator, AllEvents, lists the concert from 6:00 PM to 9:00 PM and describes the duration as three hours. Readers should confirm the start time with Laramie Interfaith or the Cowboy Saloon & Dance Hall before attending.

The program will feature live music from a local band identified only in the listing as a truncated name, "Hou," plus a silent auction and games. Laramie Interfaith notes explicitly that "Profits from the silent auction will benefit Laramie Interfaith!" and that "There will be prizes for trivia and minigame winners." Ticket booking is available through the AllEvents listing, which states, "Tickets for Banding Together- A Night for Neighbors can be booked here," though the listing does not publish ticket prices.

Laramie Interfaith anchors the concert in its ongoing client services and outreach. The organization’s mission is stated plainly: "The mission of Laramie Interfaith is to work alongside our partners and neighbors in preventing and alleviating homelessness and food insecurity." Laramie Interfaith operates a pantry that does not require proof of income except where TEFAP certification applies, and it offers rental and housing assistance by request. Pantry hours published on the organization’s site are Monday and Wednesday, 11:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.; Tuesday and Thursday, 11:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m.; Friday closed except for commodities days; and Saturday, 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m.

For Albany County residents, the concert is both entertainment and practical community support. Money raised through the silent auction and other event proceeds will help sustain pantry operations and emergency assistance that local families use week to week. The event also highlights local volunteer and nonprofit networks under Laramie Interfaith’s "Neighbors Helping Neighbors" banner.

Before making plans, check the event start time and ticketing details with Laramie Interfaith or the Cowboy Saloon & Dance Hall, and consider attending or donating to support local food and housing services. The concert offers a neighborhood-focused way to keep community safety nets funded and visible as demand for assistance continues in Albany County.
