The Bergen 350 Gala

The Bergen 350 Gala
Bergen County’s celebration of New Jersey’s 350th anniversary

The Bergen 350 Gala will be a once-in-a-lifetime celebration—an event to observe New Jersey’s 350th Anniversary and mark Bergen County’s place in it. Equally important, the Gala will raise funds for the long-awaited and much-needed Bergen County Museum that will house Bergen’s historic artifacts.

The Gala will be held on Wednesday evening, October 15, 2014, and will take place at The Venetian on River Road in Garfield, a magnificent venue, suitably grand and elegant for the occasion.

Event Details

Upon entering the palatial lobby, guests will be greeted with Italian marble, majestic columns and 35-foot cathedral ceilings.

Those who attend the V.I.P. Cocktail Reception will proceed to the Club Room to mingle with honorees and special guests and partake of an open bar and deluxe hand-passed hors d’oeuvres.

The cocktail reception will be followed by the main event in the beautiful Grand Ballroom. Dinner will include pasta; salad; a choice of a beef, chicken or fish entre; wine throughout the evening; and custom dessert served with coffee or tea.

A highlight of the evening will be the presentation of the first Bergen County Legends Awards, which will recognize outstanding individuals whose celebrity or achievements make them “legendary” in the county’s history.

Guests will also enjoy commemorative surprises throughout the night and an elegant Silent Auction.
