Our Events
Evening of Hope & Igniting Hope
Pavilion at the Angus Barn, September 13-14, 2023 at 6:00pm
We are expanding hope again with two incredible back-to-back events! Wednesday, September 13th is our elegant Evening of Hope Gala, featuring Country Music icon Wynonna Judd! Then Thursday, September 14th Igniting Hope returns, as a night of dinner and dancing with Liquid Pleasure and speaker Dr. Kevin C. Snyder.
Both the Evening of Hope and Igniting Hope are held at the gorgeous Pavilion at the Angus Barn. The Evening of Hope includes an exquisite 4-course meal with exceptional wine pairings, silent and live auctions with fabulous getaways, wine, and exquisite home decor, and a celebrity keynote speaker. Igniting Hope is a fun, festive, celebration of Carolina charm with a southern culinary experience, live auction, music, and dancing the night away. Seating at both events will be limited to ensure intimate and incomparable experiences for all our guests.
