JUPITER — A week from Saturday, the Jupiter Inlet Lighthouse & Museum holds its biggest fundraiser of the year at the water's edge.
Rendezvous at the Light is Saturday, Nov. 14, from 6 to 9 p.m. at the lighthouse, 500 Captain Armours Way, according to the lighthouse's event page. The evening features culinary tastings, a silent auction and live entertainment. The attire is "elegant, coastal cocktail," and the organizers say stiletto heels are not recommended.
Proceeds go toward preserving the landmark and its educational programs, the lighthouse says. The event's GiveSmart page listed about $143,800 raised toward a $225,000 goal on Friday morning. It names programs the money supports, including daily fourth-grade field trips, monthly homeschool days and monthly sensory-sensitive mornings.
Tickets and details
Tickets: Sold through the lighthouse's ticket page. We did not see a ticket price on the event pages. Tickets and sponsorships are non-refundable, the page says.
Silent auction: The lighthouse is still asking local businesses to donate items such as dining certificates, spa experiences, golf packages and art.
Questions: The GiveSmart page lists Sarah at [email protected]. The lighthouse's main number is 561-747-8380.
Looking ahead, the lighthouse's Luminary Nights holiday evenings are set for Dec. 11–12 and 18–19.
