Take a step back in time to experience a 1920’s Gala set on the magical Swannanoa estate in Afton, Va. Dress up in your best 1920s attire* and bring your well-behaved dogs to dance the night away with music by DJ Dwight Ellis from 20South Productions. Refreshments will be provided by JBD Event Catering and Soul Food, Everleigh Vineyards and Brewing Company, and Random Row Brewing Company. Dogs can hang out at their very own bar, the Dewclaw Lounge, with refreshments provided by the Secret Santa Society. A live auction will be held during the event, with all proceeds from the evening going to Shelter for Help in Emergency, our area’s only local haven for emergency domestic abuse victims.

Saturday, June 17th 6-10PM at Swannanoa Estate in Afton 

*Sensible shoes please, as the estate grounds are uneven.
