Join us as we offer a wonderful spectrum of bourbons to taste, and whether you’re new to bourbon or are an experienced connoisseur, there will be something new to discover and learn. Curator of Collections and Interpretation Sarah Adams will present on the history of bourbon, and Kentucky native/bourbon connoisseur, Dr. Nathan Steele, will serve as your tasting guide to offer context and guidance throughout your flight.

A Gala Fundraiser to support the Springfield Art Association. This family-friendly event honors the volunteers who generously support the SAA with their time, talent and financial resources. The King and Queen reign over the 88th Beaux Arts Ball in recognition of their families' outstanding dedication to the SAA.

The Terrain Biennial is unlike any other art festival. It takes place on lawns, in front yards, on porches, beneath awnings, and in windows. Residents partner with artists to bring striking, contemporary artwork into their communities. The Terrain Biennial challenges the way art is often confined to institutional spaces and class-specific audiences. Across the state of Illinois and located here in Springfield's Enos Park Neighborhood, the rich tradition of apartment galleries and artist-run spaces, the Biennial brings contemporary art into the intimate terrain of the front yard, fostering dialogue between neighbors and providing access to new art for a wide range of people.
