It's a world whiskey tour — tasting passport will be provided!
And the whiskers? Oh, we've got whiskers!
Step into our cozy, covered Whisker Room, where you’ll find adorable, adoptable cats and dogs ready to steal your heart. Relax at tables and chairs while you mingle with these furry friends, and don’t miss our showcase of "smallest whiskers". These tiny paws may not be adoption-ready just yet, but they’re full of personality, promise, and cuteness overload!
Our Smallest Whiskers are baby animals currently in foster care — kittens and puppies. While they're still growing, healing, or just getting used to the world, this special showcase is your chance to see the incredible love and care they receive every day from our amazing foster families.
Stop by to learn about the early stages of rescue, what it takes to nurture these little ones, and how your support helps give them a brighter future. While they may not be going home with anyone just yet, they’re here to steal hearts and remind us why the work of fostering is so important.
Come say hi, snap a photo, and be part of their journey from rescue to ready-for-home!
And for the perfect pairing, enjoy mouthwatering bites crafted by Chef Dave Ormstedt of Atrium Market at the Tower.
Menu includes ~ BBQ Chicken Sliders, Brisket Sliders, Pinwheels, Mediterranean Mezzo Platter, Charcuterie Tray w/ Seasonal Chutney and Crackers, Caprese Bowl, Pretzels Bites w/ Beer Cheese Sauce, Fruit Tray, Mini Toast and Dip Bar, Fresh Baked Cookies, and Sweet Street Dessert Bars
Mark your calendars — this is one event you (and your taste buds) don’t want to miss! Cheers to great whiskey, adorable animals, and making a difference!
VIP Experience | 12–1 PM
Savor unique food pairings curated by the talented Chef Dave Ormstedt of Atrium Market at the Tower, expertly matched with whiskeys from West Fork Whiskey Co.
VIP's will also receive first access to the Whisker Room, along with an exclusive experience you won’t want to miss
And making a special appearance… Dixie the Praying Dog! This four-legged celebrity knows how to work a crowd — and if you're lucky, you’ll catch Dixie cruising in style in her custom Jeep (complete with sunglasses, of course!).
This VIP hour is your chance to sip, savor, and soak in the spirit of whiskey — before the main event even begins. Spots are limited, and trust us, you do not want to miss this!
