About the event
Enjoy locally inspired fare, live music, and a silent auction featuring artwork that captures the charm of Pittsford — from canal views to cobblestone corners. As the sun sets, kick up your heels with some good old-fashioned barn dancing!
Enhance your evening with a VIP group tour of this historic homestead. Learn about its rich architectural features and notable owners, led by preservationist Robert Corby.
Proceeds support Historic Pittsford’s educational programs, the creation of an archival space at the Little House, and student scholarships.
Attire: Autumn Soirée – Barn Chic
Dress for the weather and the rustic setting. Think polished but relaxed. We recommend festive fall attire with comfortable flat shoes or boots for the barn and grass.
