Historical Society of Forest Park Prohibition Party

Raise a glass before it's the big sleep for booze!

It's January 16, 1920, and the Volstead Act goes into effect tomorrow. Tonight is your last chance to celebrate with one final blowout before Prohibition changes everything. Join the Historical Society of Forest Park for an unforgettable last call party as we bid farewell to alcohol with a lively funeral for the bottle.

Slip into your glad rags, shine your dancing shoes, and bring your best 1920s style for an evening of drinking, dancing, delicious small bites, and a musical comedy cabaret that's sure to be the bee's knees. Along the way, discover the fascinating story of Forest Park's drinking culture before, during, and after Prohibition, from neighborhood saloons to speakeasies and everything in between.

Don't be a flat tire! Try your luck in our Liquor Pull Raffle and take home something worthy of your own secret stash. Every ticket helps support the Historical Society of Forest Park and its mission to preserve and share our community's rich history.

So grab your gang, knock back one for old times' sake, enjoy tasty bites, and help us send alcohol off in roaring style before the clock strikes midnight on Prohibition.
