This second annual event is a fundraiser hosted by Friends of Nathaniel Witherell to support the Friends Garden Gate Fund. This fund is dedicated to making resident quality of life enhancements to common spaces at The Witherell, including restoration and beautification of the historic Rose Garden. Guest will enjoy an elegant evening in the Rose Garden treated to a delightful array of sips and light bites. As you mingle and connect under the open sky, enjoying beautiful live music.
With your support, Friends of Nathaniel Witherell strengthens and advances life at The Nathaniel Witherell by leading a robust volunteer program, securing essential philanthropic investment, and championing the needs and voices of aging adults in our community.
