SUMMER GARDEN PARTY
Honoring Patrick and Marcelle Leahy

Summer libations, al fresco dinner, and live jazz, amid a picturesque backdrop of flower gardens, rolling meadows, and distant views, at a private home in Guilford, Vermont

Throughout their decades of public service, Senator Patrick and Marcelle Leahy have been unwavering champions of the arts and culture in Vermont and across the nation. Their belief in the power of creativity to build community, foster dialogue, and enrich lives has made a lasting impact on institutions large and small. An avid photographer himself, Senator Leahy has long recognized the importance of visual storytelling, and both he and Marcelle have nurtured generations of artists and cultural advocates. Their dedication reflects a deep understanding that the arts are not a luxury—but a vital thread in the fabric of civic life. We are proud to honor the Leahys for their enduring commitment and invite you to join us in celebrating their legacy.

Friday, June 20, 5-7 p.m.

$250 per person

Proceeds support the Patrick and Marcelle Leahy Fund for Photography, a new fund for photography exhibitions and programs at BMAC.

Space is limited. RSVP by June 11.
