The Art of the Cocktail: High Stakes
The Delaware Art Museum’s friends and neighbors invite you to their 4th annual cocktail party on Friday, April 17th at 7:00 pm. The Art of The Cocktail: High Stakes promises to radiate the grace of Derby tradition while delivering the thrill of the winner’s circle. Join us for an unforgettable evening where Southern style meets celebration!
Bring out your floral prints, classic silhouettes, seersucker blazers, bow ties, and wide-brimmed hats. Let the DJ carry the night from the racetrack to the casino: savor cocktails and appetizers, try your luck at the casino tables, and explore the silent auction for a chance at high-stakes winnings.
The evening’s culinary experience is graciously presented by Jamestown Catering and the evening’s cocktail experience is artfully presented by Standard Distributing, courtesy of the Tigani family.
Proceeds directly support DelArt’s monthly Family Second Sunday program, a fun-filled day of art, creativity, and connection for families.
