Dragonfly Dinner

The Dragonfly Dinner presented bu the Emilson Foundation

The evening begins with a scenic cocktail reception from 5:30 pm to 6:30 pm, overlooking the peaceful marshlands as the sun sets. This time offers a beautiful opportunity to gather, connect, and reflect in a setting that captures the spirit of our mission.

Dinner follows from 6:30pm to 9:00pm in our historic barn. The meal is an artistic expression of our community, thoughtfully prepared by our dedicated volunteers and culinary workforce team. As our largest workforce event of the year, this evening represents months of meaningful preparation, where individuals build skills, grow confidence, and step into a sense of purpose. The experience extends far beyond the event itself, creating real pathways toward stability, connection, and community impact.

Each detail, from the food to the atmosphere, reflects the heart of who we are and the important work we do every day.

The Dragonfly Dinner is more than a gathering. It is a celebration of resilience, transformation, and the power of coming together to support mental health and community healing.
