Join us for Blooms & Benefactors, the Robbins Hunter Museum’s fall fundraiser, on Saturday, September 12, from 3:30–5:30 pm.

UPDATE: We've moved the party inside the museum!

Due to the changing weather forecast, Blooms & Benefactors will now take place inside the Robbins Hunter Museum this Saturday from 3:30–5:30 pm.

Guests will enjoy wine and mocktail flights, delicious food, live music, and our exciting silent auction, all within the museum’s beautiful historic spaces we are raising money to preserve. We are excited to welcome you on Saturday!

Spend a beautiful afternoon celebrating history, gardens, and community on the museum grounds. Your ticket includes a delicious grazing table and sandwiches from Sharecuterie, live music, and your choice of a wine or mocktail tasting flight.

This year’s curated Wines of Spain flight takes guests on a tasting journey from a bright coastal Albariño and refreshing dry rosé to a fruit-forward Rioja and bold Garnacha. A thoughtfully crafted mocktail flight will also be available.

Guests will also have the opportunity to bid on distinctive silent-auction items, local artwork, and memorable experiences.

Blooms & Benefactors is our most significant fundraiser of the year. Every ticket purchased helps preserve the historic 1842 Avery-Downer House while supporting the museum’s engaging exhibits, educational programs, guided tours, and free community events.

It is an exciting time for the Robbins Hunter Museum. We are refreshing the Jill Griesse Historic Garden and Holly Shai Lady’s Garden while preparing to begin a major exterior painting project. At the same time, we continue to welcome visitors with free admission and offer programs that connect our community with local history, art, and architecture.

Join us as we celebrate the museum’s future while preserving one of Granville’s most treasured historic landmarks.
