Join us for the annual Hermitage Gala
The Hermitage Gala is a sparkling, black-tie soiree of cocktails, dinner, auction and musical entertainment. The Gala benefits the Andrew Jackson Foundation’s mission to preserve the home place of President Andrew Jackson, to create learning opportunities through education and public programming and to inspire citizenship through experiencing the life and unique impact of Jackson. Founded 13 years ago and held in the fall, this memorable event will be attended by more than 400 prominent Southeastern, national and international guests.
For the first time, The Hermitage Gala will be held in a tented ballroom at the storied home of President Jackson. Entertainment will include a performance by award-winning country singer and songwriter Phil Vassar, as well as music from country music/string band The Howlin Brothers. An art and travel auction will also take place.
