Friends Winter Luncheon

Join us for the Friends Winter Luncheon on December 11, 2025, following the lecture with Olivia Lonetti.

The luncheon features apricot, fig, and gorgonzola stuffed pork tenderloin with an apple cider reduction, served with root vegetable mash, roasted carrots, and assorted breads. The vegetarian option is polenta cake with mushroom ragu and roasted carrots. For dessert we’ll enjoy grasshopper pie, along with coffee and tea.

This festive gathering is a great opportunity to visit with old friends and make new ones during this magical time of year. We hope to see you there!

Registration is required. Purchase your ticket by midnight on November 30.
