For the first time since 2019, officials from the Janice Mason Art Museum are more than pleased to be convening once again for their “Dinner On Main” event.
Scheduled for 6:30 p.m., May 14, a long line of tables and party lighting will straddle Main Street in — beginning at City Hall and running as far as needed for the limited seating, before road blocks at the Trigg County Judicial Center help contain a private, intimate setting with historic downtown Cadiz.
A global pandemic has twice thwarted the museum’s top annual fundraiser, and board member Kim Fortner said there’s great anticipation for a robust turnout.
Like any other non-profit organization, the former post office of Cadiz turned protectorate and bastion of local and regional artwork needs fundraising and donor support to keep in shape — and Fortner noted that “Dinner On Main” plays a large role in fiscal matters.
A dinner like this will showcase many local restaurants in and around Trigg County.
Should weather be a factor, Fortner said there are contingency plans in place if needed in order to conduct the dinner as planned.
Event goers will begin with hors d’oeuvres at the museum around 6 p.m. that evening and can check out the current exhibit before heading down to Main Street for the classic affair.
Tickets went on sale Tuesday, and are $55 for general admission and $50 for members of the museum.
For reservations and ticket purchases, visit the museum at 71 Main Street in Cadiz, or call (270) 522-9056.
