For the second year in a row, the East End’s biggest social event is giving guests the option to party at home.
Stony Brook Southampton Hospital’s annual summer party, now in its 63rd year, is organizing a hybrid gala this year, with both in-person and at-home offerings.
Like last year, guests will be able to purchase a table and receive a curated party box from catering company Elegant Affairs to entertain up to 10 people. The food provided includes a three-course meal, and wines from Wölffer Estate.
Donors who purchase higher-tier tables will be treated to a customized dinner party with help from chefs, waiters, and bartenders. All tables across the donation tiers will be united with a virtual toast over Zoom.
The at-home gala will take place August 7, but donors who purchase tables at higher price points will also receive two tickets to the Patron Party — an in-person event at the Wölffer Estate on July 24, hosted by Liev Schrieber and SBSH chief administrative officer, Robert Chaloner.

Proceeds from the event supports the Jenny & John Paulson Emergency Department, the first on the East End to be verified as a Level III Trauma Center as verified by the American College of Surgeons, and is open every day of the year.
Tables start at $7,500. Check out the SBSH website for more information. Guests unable to attend but still interested in supporting the cause can also make a donation online, here.
Avenue is once again proud to support the event as a media sponsor. Cin-cin!
