Socializing

Eat, drink and be merry

The evening began with a warm, welcoming social hour as guests arrived and gathered under the tent. Attendees enjoyed a beautifully arranged grazing bar while sipping wine, beer, or our signature Amethyst Spritz, mingling at cocktail tables and catching up with friends old and new. It set the tone for a relaxed and celebratory night, full of connection and community.

Following the social time, Courtney, our Head of School, shared a few opening remarks to welcome everyone and set the stage for the evening. Guests then broke off to attend their selected classes, transitioning from casual connection into hands-on experiences.

At the end of the evening, guests returned to the tent to wind down and enjoy a sweet finish. Cupcakes from Sweet AromaZ Cupcakes, a local minority- and women-owned small business, were a highlight—quickly becoming a crowd favorite—paired perfectly with fresh coffee as guests wrapped up their night and completed checkout. It was a cozy and satisfying close to an already memorable event.
