6pm VIP Experience | 7pm Doors open for GA 

The TWFest Gala will take place in the beaux-arts style home of Tony Award winner John Cameron Mitchell. The home, known as The Temple, is a painstakingly restored side hall Italianate in the Bywater neighborhood with a storied past.

The evening begins at 6 pm with an exclusive, limited seating VIP experience including a garden chef's table, celebrity bartender cocktail pairings, music by Delta Revues, and a tour of the home and its rich collection of Hollywood, Broadway, and Rock'n'roll memorabilia.

At 7 pm, doors open for General Admission ticket holders to enjoy the open bar, hors d'oeuvres, and music by Layla Musselwhite in the garden and ornate ballroom. The evening continues with a silent auction, our inaugural awards presentation for excellence in literary arts, performing arts, and arts advocacy, and a decadent night of reveling in the stunning home and garden with a special appearance by Harry Mayronne. The hostess for the evening will be Poppy Tooker.
