In addition to the nibbles and drinks, there will be a silent auction with craft, wellness, travel and culinary items up for bidding. For those looking for a bit more adventure, there will also be experiences offered up, including the “Ultimate Tesla Experience.” The winning bidder on that package will be allowed to take home a Model S for 24 hours.

All proceeds from the event will benefit event host the Red Hook Initiative (RHI), a community center in Red Hook which serves over 5,000 residents annually. Last year’s event raised more than $330,000 to support the programs that serve as the foundation of RHI’s work to empower neighborhood youth and residents.
