Hunter Museum Has Terrace At Twilight: A Night In The Garden Fundraiser

  • Monday, March 10, 2025

The Hunter Museum of American Art announces a new event - Terrace at Twilight: A Night in the Garden, taking place on Thursday, April 24, from 6-10 p.m.

Presented by Tremont Tavern and chaired by Amanda and Ben Frank, the event will be held under a tent on the museum’s River Terrace, which will be transformed into a lush garden overlooking the Tennessee River. Guests will enjoy a silent auction, surprise experiences, cocktails and dancing.

The theme, A Night in the Garden, draws inspiration from the mysterious charm of a garden at dusk, where ivy-clad walls and antiquated statues mingle in the shadows. Guests are encouraged to don their most creative garden-inspired cocktail attire to match the vibrant spirit of the evening.

Attendees and virtual supporters alike are encouraged to bid on the Terrace at Twilight online auction, available April 17-24. Highlights include tickets to the 2025 Music City Bowl, limited edition vintage bourbon, tickets to regional flower farms, and exclusive curator-led museum tours.

"We are thrilled to be chairing the first year of this incredible new event," said Chairs Amanda and Ben Frank. "Terrace at Twilight will be a gorgeous, fun-filled spring celebration on the Hunter’s spectacular River Terrace, and we hope the whole community joins us on April 24 to support the Hunter Museum."

Tickets can be purchased here. A general admission ticket ($125) includes access to an open bar, hors d’oeuvres, silent auction participation, and dancing under the stars. A VIP ticket ($250) enhances the experience, offering complimentary valet, access to an exclusive VIP lounge, and elevated bar offerings. Valet accommodations can be added to a general admission ticket for $10.
