We're so honored to be hosting the Third Annual Service! Gala in support of hospitality workers. This year, we invite you to step into an evening of mystery and elegance at a Masquerade Ball, where artistry, philanthropy and celebration will come together.

Join us as we celebrate the culinary and service professionals who keep our community fed, cared for, and connected. Don your finest formalwear or an elaborate costume, slip on an ornate mask, and immerse yourself in an unforgettable night featuring curated bites from top local talent, craft cocktails, live entertainment, and opportunities to support our mission through auctions, raffles, and special giving moments.

What to Expect:

Curated Food & Cocktails: Exceptional tastings and signature drinks crafted by the very community we celebrate.
Live & Silent Auctions: Bid on exclusive industry experiences and premium packages.
Industry Awards: An awards ceremony recognizing outstanding hospitality leaders, community partners, and champions of our mission.
Music & Entertainment: Immersive performances and candlelit ambiance to keep the energy going all night.

Attire & Mask Guidelines:

Costumes and dramatic masquerade looks are enthusiastically encouraged! Elegant formal wear paired with a mask is equally welcome. Arriving bare-faced? We will have complimentary masks waiting for you at the door.

Party with a Purpose

This gala is more than just a party. It's a fundraiser that helps professionalize our industry and give hospitality workers the respect, training and opportunities they deserve. Every dollar raised fuels career pathways, culinary training, job placement, and critical wraparound support for local hospitality workers.

Get your tickets now to celebrate, give back, and strengthen the future of our local hospitality community.
