The Marion Art Center announces the return of its premier summer fundraiser, Cocktails by the Sea. The party is scheduled at the home of hosts David & Nancy Corkery. The MAC’s annual fundraiser will include a silent auction, open bar, hors d’oeuvres, and live music.

Enjoy a new experience during this year’s event – show up by land or by sea! Ticket holders can ride the launch across the harbor from Tabor Academy (Beverly Yacht Club members can use the BYC launch instead), or drive to Point Road and take a golf cart shuttle from Marion Golf Club parking lot. The launch is a Coast Guard-approved vessel that can carry 19 persons including a licensed launch driver.

The MAC thanks the many businesses and local community members who are supporting the fundraiser. This year’s Gold Sponsor is Demakis Family Real Estate; Silver Sponsors include Tabor Academy, American Research & Management, and Passerine Pottery by Nancy Skawinski; Premier Patrons include Burr Bros Boats, Cape Cod 5, Eastern Bank, Abington Bank, Berkshire Hathaway Home Services/Robert Paul Properties, and Saltonstall Architects. Special thanks to contributing partners Eden Florist & Garden Shop, Marion Golf Club, Sperry Tents, and Top of the Hill Liquors.

Attend the party to show your support for the arts in our region while sipping cocktails at this beautiful waterfront property in Marion. Enjoy the views of the harbor from the lawn and meet and mingle with friends under a stunning Sperry tent. Remember to wear comfortable footwear for walking on the lawn. Peruse the many fabulous items in our silent auction including original artwork, gift baskets, one-of-a-kind experiences, and more!
