Join the Shaker Historical Society for our 2nd Annual Shaker Soirée, a garden party with food, friends, libations, and music!

All guests will have full access to beer, wine, signature cocktails, hors d’oeuvres, and desserts in an intimate garden setting.  A pre-event champagne celebration brings you unlimited champagne, a behind-the-scenes museum tour, and garden party admission. Cocktail tables and limited seating will be available throughout the evening. This year's event will be held on Saturday, July 8, 2023 from 7:00-10:00 p.m. on museum grounds with complimentary valet parking. Garden party attire is encouraged.

This new event is a loving homage to our former Gracious Gardens tours and a nod to the Shaker Historical Society's first planned social event, a community garden party, in 1948. Proceeds benefit the Shaker Historical Society's mission to collect, preserve, and interpret the history of Shaker Heights to inspire curiosity and foster engagement between diverse communities and the people, events, and stories that shape local history.


6:00-10:00 p.m. // Champagne Hour; includes unlimited champagne, an exclusive champagne cocktail, an exclusive hors d'oeuvre, live music from Youth Bridging Through Arts string quartet, an optional behind-the-scenes museum tour from the Executive Director, optional curator-led tours of special exhibitions, Garden Party admission from 7:00-10:00 p.m. with three drink tickets, and complimentary valet parking
