USH X Urban Wild 2026

You are invited to a very special evening at urban wild, filled with live music, delicious food & drink, bowling, and most importantly, raising critical funds for usher syndrome research.

Please join the Usher Syndrome Society as we return to Urban Wild for our Annual Sight, Sound, & Strength Fundraiser on Tuesday, December 1st on Giving Tuesday! Last year’s event was such a tremendous success that we simply had to return to this wonderful venue for another year, and we hope you will join us again.

 

Urban Wild is a restaurant, beer garden, bowling alley, live music venue, and game space located in Charlestown, MA. With a warm and festive atmosphere, live music, bowling, and unlimited food and drinks, it will be an evening you won’t want to miss.

 

This year, all proceeds from USH X Urban Wild will directly support PUSH (the Pipeline for Usher Syndrome Research), our collaborative research initiative focused on accelerating the development of treatments for multiple types of Usher syndrome. The work is already showing tremendous promise, with researchers establishing proof of concept for some of the therapeutic approaches being developed through the program. Now, continued funding is crucial to build on this progress, accelerate the most promising work, and move potential treatments out of the lab and toward the clinic.

 

We are also proud to share that this year’s event will include the debut of a new short film by the Usher Syndrome Society featuring musician Nathan Stockton, who plays in a heavy metal band and is living with Usher syndrome
