When we put cookbook author, culinary star, and Hillsdale neighbor Dan “Grossy” Pelosi on the cover of our Fall issue, we knew a celebration was in order.

So we gathered friends, contributors, fellow food lovers, and local tastemakers for a festive evening at the brand-new hot spot Hilltown, where owner/pizzaiolo Rafi Bildner’s joyful hospitality matched Pelosi’s signature warmth. The pizzas kept coming (and disappearing as quickly!), while drinks, courtesy of Berkshire Mountain Distillers and Dare Bottleshop, were raised for toasting.

Greenagers’ 2nd Annual Summer Gala celebrated the commitment and creativity of Greenagers youth while raising vital funds to continue creating opportunities for young people. Thanks to our youth crew members and students for sharing their experiences, and to the community that showed up to support them.
The annual Summer Gala in the Village was a spectacular evening with horse-and-carriage rides, cocktails and music in the garden, a stunning sunset off the Round Stone Barn, a delicious dinner, and a night full of stars.
