Berks Encore will host its inaugural Garden Party on Thursday, May 14, at the Reading Public Museum. Tickets are $75.00 per person. Guests are invited to wear their favorite spring outfit and enjoy an evening of live music, hors d’oeuvres, raffles, and meaningful opportunities to support Berks County seniors.

Set under a tent overlooking the museum’s scenic grounds, the evening will feature live entertainment by Hot Club of Reading, along with spring-inspired décor and interactive elements designed to create a relaxed and engaging atmosphere.

The event will also serve as the kickoff to Berks Encore’s Annual Sponsorship Campaign, offering local businesses meaningful opportunities for year-round visibility and community engagement.

Berks Encore, which delivers Meals on Wheels throughout Berks County, recently celebrated its 60th anniversary, marking decades of service to older adults. As the organization looks ahead, it remains focused on strengthening programs and expanding its impact for years to come.

Berks Encore extends its sincere thanks to event sponsors whose generous support helps make this event possible and directly benefits seniors across the community.

For more information, tickets, or sponsorship opportunities, contact Mindy McIntosh, Director of Development, at MMcIntosh@BerksEncore.org or 610-374-3195 ext. 228.

I wanted to thank you again for the opportunity you have created for our kids.  This experience is more than the TV show.  Eight students who probably never would have talked to each other were excited to execute a plan. Know that you make a difference.
