Friday, June 12, 6:00 pm – 9:00 pm – Spring into Summer Party Postponed

by

Enjoy a blooming evening on Friday, June 12 from 6- 9, at Gore Place’s 5th Annual Spring into Summer gala fund raiser.

This year marks the 85th anniversary of the founding of Gore Place Society. Over a few short days in May 1935, four prominent organizations led by some fierce Boston preservationists raced to save the estate from a developer. Thanks to their efforts, Gore Place not only survived, but is slowly but surely being restored to its original magnificence.

Come celebrate this milestone at the 5th annual Spring into Summer party on Friday, June 12, 2020. This event will honor Charlotte Patten, an ardent supporter of Gore Place. Enjoy cocktails in the elegant 1806 Mansion, followed by dinner and dancing in the tent to the music of the Bo and Bill Winiker Orchestra.
