Wilton Library is pleased to announce that tickets are on sale now for its Decades Spring Gala Fundraiser to be held on Friday, April 4, 2025 from 6:30 to 10:30 p.m. at the library. Guests will honor the library’s 130th Anniversary as they celebrate the past decades, come together for a festive party, and help raise valuable funds.

“The Decades Spring Gala, our largest fundraiser of the year, continues the library’s mission of connecting with our community while celebrating our rich traditions started 130 years ago. Our hope is for guests to enjoy a lively evening in a creative atmosphere with a focus on fun,” said Caroline Mandler, Executive Director of Wilton Library. “Music will play a big role in the event, for we know how powerful music can be in connecting us and transporting us to different times and places. The community demonstrates their love for the library every day. In turn, we are planning a night for guests to be welcomed into the library’s familiar spaces with surprises around every turn.”

The library is planning a celebration featuring passed hors d'oeuvres, open bar, elegant sit-down dinner, a live DJ and dancing, silent auction, wine pull, paddle raise, and more! Nostalgia will fill the air as partygoers travel through time starting with the Roaring '20s, cruising through the '50s and '60s, doing the '70s hustle, flashing back to the '80s, and partying like it's 1999. Dancing to music will transport guests to another time and the festive atmosphere will feature iconic items that defined earlier days. Event partners include AMG Catering & Events, Ancona's Wines & Liquors, Cellobrations Entertainment & Events, and Justin Baiad Photography.

Tickets are on sale now at $225 per person and may be purchased at https://trellis.org/wla-decade... or by contacting Marie Demasi at development@wiltonlibrary.org or 203-762-6323.
