Over 150 attendees gathered in the garden to celebrate the honorees and raise $25,000 for the Edward Hopper House Museum & Study Center. Guests were invited to participate in the silent auction, which contained prizes such as a Sunset Cruise with Nyack Boat Charter and wood-carved craft from the Butternut Tree in Hopper’s backyard. The John Malino Band and an outdoor sculpture exhibit set the event’s vibrant ambiance.

“As with all Edward Hopper House fundraisers, this was a fantastic celebration of his legacy. But this time, we were able to celebrate in a glorious garden with beautiful sculpture. What made the event such a pleasure was the warmth our honorees exuded when they were presented with the Key to Edward Hopper House indefinitely.”- Jennifer Patton, Ed.D., Executive Director, Edward Hopper House
