Each year offers a unique theme, and this year’s “An Evening in the French Quarter” will bring the flavor and flair of New Orleans to the Philadelphia area. For a taste of the Big Easy, guests will sample creative Southern-inspired culinary bites, featuring Creole, Cajun and soul-food influences, as they listen to Louisiana-style jazz.

For dessert, enjoy the “Battle of the Berries” competition, as area chefs compete to be named creator of the best berry dish! The competing chefs will be from the General Warren, Fork and Bottle Restaurant at The Desmond, Suburban Restaurant and Beer Garden, Amani’s BYOB and the Master’s Baker.

The evening is made complete with an awe-inspiring fireworks display set off over the rolling hills of Chester County.

This annual Garden Party is one of Brandywine Health Foundation’s most important fundraisers. The event helps raise funds to support local organizations who work for the benefit of Coatesville residents in many ways, including helping the residents to live healthier lives, aiding area youth with a variety of program offerings, and creating a safe and vibrant community for all. Coatesville Area Youth Philanthropy Program and the “Greening Coatesville” Initiative are two of these programs which these funds have helped to support.
