Celebrate historic preservation on Nantucket and “Party ’til the Cows Come Home” at the 20th Annual August Fête, Thursday August 7, at the Eleanor Ham Pony Field on Mill Street!
Tour beautifully preserved history homes and enjoy delicious hearty hors d’oeuvres from Nantucket Catering Company, live music from the Shep Cats, and a beautiful tented reception.
The Fête runs from 6-9 PM, but Leadership Supporters can arrive early at 5:30 and enjoy a special preview.
At 8 PM, Karen Keane of Bonhams Skinner and Antiques Roadshow fame will host a live auction, your opportunity to bid on unique experiences like a harbor sail on a Nantucket-built Alerion class sloop or a ride along with commercial scallopers in November. The Sense of Place Silent Auction also features over a dozen items to bid on from island artists and artisans, all in support of Nantucket Preservation Trust’s mission to preserve, protect, and promote Nantucket’s architectural heritage and sense of place.
The Fête sells out every year, so don’t miss your chance to purchase tickets today!
