On Friday, September 27th, the Vault Performing Arts Center and Pub on Purchase Street in New Bedford will host a special concert to honor the life of U.S. Marine Corps Private First Class Becket W. Kiernan, who passed away in 2018. Local band Nikki and The Boys will perform from 8:00 PM to 10:00 PM (doors open at 7:00 PM), with all proceeds going towards building a memorial in Becket's hometown of Rochester, Massachusetts. This will be the third benefit concert in Becket’s honor, and the fundraiser is now only $1,000 short of its goal.
