At this semi-formal event, over twenty of the area’s best chefs create signature small plates for gala guests. Live music, a silent auction, and a Chefs Celebrity Fundraiser competition round out the evening. This year’s theme is Kentucky Derby, and the event will also highlight the impact the ReStore thrift shops have on the Habitat mission.

Sponsorships committed by November 30th, 2024 will receive special early bird pricing as well as access to the VIP reception, which includes early entry, a signature cocktail toast, light appetizers, live music, and auction item preview.

Somerset Counties. To sponsor or donate an item for the silent auction, contact Community Outreach Coordinator Karen Cooper, at 410-546-1551.
