Galentine’s Day = a celebration of female friendships. Galentine’s Day Party at OAK = a fun night out to celebrate with food, drink & more!

Back for year two! OAK Long Bar + Kitchen and The Food Lens are joining forces again to throw a party for ladies to celebrate the ladies in their lives the day before Valentine’s Day, popularly known as Galentine’s Day. On Thursday, February 13, from 6:00–9:00 PM, join their soirée for a night of sipping, snacking, and sweets—all while supporting a local charity that serves homeless women.

Here’s how they’ll be honoring the ladies:

  • With a tasting of standout rosés produced by lady vintners
  • With signature Galentine’s themed cocktails
  • With a sweets station from OAK’s pastry chef, Lindsay Le Blanc
  • With cheese sourced from female purveyors, plus a charcuterie spread
  • With delicious passed hors d’oeuvres and a bountiful raw bar
  • With a chance to win a gift basket filled with tasty and pampering items from local women-owned businesses
  • With a playlist featuring the queens of pop

“What’s Galentine’s Day? Oh, it’s only the best day of the year!” – Leslie Knope. The holiday was created by the show “Parks and Recreation” and has since transcended the TV screen to become a beloved tradition of celebrating female friendships annually on February 13, whether that be your friend, sister, co-worker, mom, partner, or other!
