The United States Bartending Guild is bringing an exciting competition to the Nature Center at Shaker Lakes! Each of the competing mixologists will get the opportunity to showcase their skills and craft cocktails to be judged, and YOU get to taste and vote for your favorite. The winner and their cocktail will be featured at this year’s Nature at Night: Metamorphosis Annual Benefit.

Join us for a night of fun, competition, and delicious drinks!
