PHILADELPHIA, PA — Celebrate the Gatsby Age gardens of Glen Foerd, Philadelphia’s only historic Delaware River estate open to the public. The party is being held at Glen Foerd’s Riverside Pavilion on Sunday, October 5th from 2 to 5 p.m. Enjoy a festive afternoon of fine food, beer, wine and signature cocktails, 1920s music by the Gin Canaries, silent auction, chef demo station, and wine pull (grand prize – Dom Perignon). Prizes awarded to best garden party hat and jaunty boutonniere.
The proceeds for this year’s event will go towards the restoration and care of Glen Foerd’s historic gardens and landscape. The estate, which is on the National Register of Historic Places, was recently included in the Historic American Landscape Survey, one of only 24 in Pennsylvania.
