Annual Gala

AHS’ signature fundraising event of the year, our annual Gala, brings together AHS members and renowned horticulturalists from across the nation and neighborhood fans of River Farm for a truly exceptional evening. This landmark event, traditionally held each September at our headquarters in Alexandria, Virginia, is a vital component of our efforts to support AHS’ mission and to maintain the beauty and preservation of the iconic River Farm.
