Gather your friends and join us under the tent for an evening of great food, fellowship, and lighthearted fun at our annual fundraiser.
Where: Ward Farm, a vegetable garden operated by Evanston Grows that provides more than 5,000 pounds of fresh produce each summer for
IWSE families and the community. (located next door to our Baby Toddler Nursery)
What to Expect:
Six local celebrity chefs serving multi-cultural delicious bites
Two open bars: wine, beer, and signature drink
Whimsical entertainers — jugglers, stilt walkers, and other delightful surprises
Music and dancing with DJ Mwelwa to end the night
We’ll also celebrate our partners — Evanston Grows and Ward Manufacturing — and honor Cara Strong, IWSE Director of Finance. Along the way, we’ll share a brief, feel-good glimpse of how IWSE sparks the imaginations of babies, toddlers, and families so they can reach their full potential.
Proceeds support IWSE’s programs serving our children and families.
