Get Ready for a Night Where Sparkle Meets Spirit — and Rhinestones Meet Moonshine!

Join us for Art of Pairing: Martinis and Moonshine on October 18, 2025, a one-of-a-kind evening where class meets country in the most unforgettable way. This year’s event invites you to sip, savor, and celebrate in true Southern style—with a twist. Think elevated comfort food by Chef Neal Agee and beef donated by Chapel Creek Farms, handcrafted cocktails (including batched martinis and a moonshine tasting board!), tasty desserts, live music featuring Last Call "Party Band", and a silent auction pairing local art with fine spirits.

Upgrade your evening with VIP access at 6:00 PM to enjoy exclusive perks like appetizers, a top-shelf signature cocktail menu, live entertainment, and more. General admission opens at 7:00 PM. Whether you’re in cowboy boots or cocktail attire—or both—this is the art of pairing done right.

Tickets start at $75 per person for general admission, with special pricing for couples at $140 and limited VIP Tickets are $100 per person which includes early access and the full evening of fun. Mark your calendar and get ready to raise a glass—or a mason jar—at the Bower Center's signature fall fundraiser!
