Immerse yourself in wonder at the Sands Point Preserve Conservancy’s Avant-Garden Party Gala on Tuesday, July 16, 5:30-8:30 p.m., in the Hempstead House Garden.
This one-night-only magical affair will be an experience like no other, as exhilarating acrobats, sword-balancers and other performance artists astonish and delight. The experience promises to push the boundaries of creativity, while guests also enjoy dinner and cocktails in the Preserve’s four-season native-plant garden, with Long Island Sound as a backdrop.
The evening features a sumptuous buffet, including vegetarian fare and an open bar. Dinner will be followed by a not-to-be-missed dessert procession, complete with delectable treats.
Tickets are also available for the evening’s VIP Tea Parlor After-Party Experience. The after-party will take place in Hempstead House’s transformed Breakfast Room, where partygoers can enjoy elixirs and mind-bending illusions while a mystic reads their tea leaves.
“We are excited to welcome our supporters to the Preserve’s Avant-Garden Party Gala. This year’s gala is designed to inspire and entertain with remarkable, one-of-a-kind performance artists in the heart of the Hempstead House Garden – it will be a very special evening,” said Jeremiah Bosgang, executive director of Sands Point Preserve Conservancy.
In the event of rain, the gala will be held inside Hempstead House, a former Guggenheim mansion. All proceeds from the gala will support the mission and operations of the Sands Point Preserve Conservancy.
Tickets for the 5:30-8:30 p.m. Avant-Garden Party, which includes food, drink, and entertainment, are $235 per person.
Ticket packages begin at $1,000 for the VIP reception, which includes cocktails, dinner, entertainment, the after-party experience, and tribute ads in a beautiful online journal, which will be posted on the Preserve’s website.
