Seaside Soiree

Friday, July 17, 2026
6:00 – 10:00 pm 

Join us on Friday, July 17th, for a seaside event with our stunning castle home as the backdrop setting, celebrating the Hammond Castle Museum’s legacy as a cultural anchor on Cape Ann. This is a brand new event, unlike anything ever offered before! Celebrate summer on the Museum’s seaside lawn with an elegant gathering overlooking
the Atlantic. Enjoy a curated menu of local fare, cocktails, live music and art, guided champagne
museum tours, and a magical sunset, all in support of preserving this historic treasure for future
generations.


The event will feature a silent and live auction, art raffle, professional photography, a
champagne garden, and ample opportunity to mingle and experience the magic of the Museum.
The dress code is cocktail attire; however, elevated Art-Deco-inspired ensembles are a most
welcome addition to the evening.
This event is 21+.

guided champagne tour of the Museum and open bar.
