✨ An Evening of Elegance and Entertainment:

🍾 Exciting Raffles:
We are thrilled to have our raffles this year, courtesy of The Smith Jewelry and Living, an exquisite boutique founded by Christina Catsavis. Known for its curated collection of jewelry, home goods, and furniture, The Smith is a haven for tastemakers. Christina’s expertise as a bench jeweler and designer ensures that each piece is crafted with artistry and care. We also have other exciting items and it is a "not required to be present," raffle drawing for winners. Our bubbly for the Bubbly Wall is sponsored by In Good Spirits.

📸 Magical Photo Opportunities, Drinks, & Special ART:
We will have multiple photo booths, cocktail bars, and opportunities for special keepsake art treasures. You will find many fun activities throughout the evening. 

🎉 Wine & Bourbon Auction and Open Cocktail Bars:
One of the highlights of the evening is the Wine, Bourbon & Specialty Items Live Auction, proudly sponsored by In Good Spirits. Guests will have the opportunity to bid on exquisite wines, fine bourbons, and specialty items. Guests are encouraged to donate a bottle from their own cellar, or for a minimum donation of $500, our expert wine connoisseurs will hand-pick a wine or bourbon for you. Donors will have their name and logo exclusively featured in the auction inventory. If you have any questions about wine auction donations, please contact Payton Hart at Payton@reynoldscancersupporthouse.org. Our open cocktail bars are also specially curated and sponsored by In Good Spirits.

Kim Daniels, a graduate of America’s Auction and Professional Ringman’s Institute, will return as our guest auctioneer. As a member of both the Arkansas Auctioneers Association and the National Auctioneers Association, Kim's professionalism and charisma ensure a lively and engaging auction!

Join us for an evening filled with music, dancing, gourmet food, and unforgettable moments. You won’t want to miss this magical night of giving, celebrating, and making memories that will last a lifetime. Wine & Roses is more than just a night of celebration—it is a lifeline for the cancer patients we serve. This event generates nearly 50% of our annual operating income, directly funding the cost-free, non-medical services that thousands of cancer patients and their families depend on each year. Without the generosity of our sponsors and supporters, these vital programs would not exist. 💖✨
