Lily Fest 6.0 — Hillsdale Lily Garden

The biggest bloom day of the year is back. Lily Fest 6.0 is an all-day summer celebration at Hillsdale Lily Garden, bringing together thousands of daylilies in peak bloom, live music, local vendors, food, and community — all in one joyful day.

Stroll the garden, shop local makers, grab a bite from Fremont County Cattlemen's food truck, cool down with Tropical Sno shaved ice, and pick up homemade pies and baked goods from Hillsdale Church. The little ones can visit the petting zoo, and live music runs throughout the afternoon featuring Josh Heard, Steve Taylor, Kevin and Leslie Whitehill, and introducing Caitlyn Crouse — all scheduled by the Tanner Foss Project.

Parking is $5, and your receipt doubles as $5 off any flower purchase on site. Every dollar goes directly to the Tanner Foss Project, a nonprofit funding arts opportunities for young people and supporting local musicians.

Mission: The You Are Loved Project was created in the spring of 2019 after the death of Tristan Eggett. Tristan took his life December 29, 2018 at the young age of 22. He had been battling depression and addiction the last several years of his life. The You Are Loved foundation seeks to raise awareness on mental health and to remind EVERYONE that they are LOVED! All money raised goes to assisting children who have lost a parent in any matter. They assist in covering expenses for youth to participate in extracurricular activities in areas such as dance, music or art lessons, and sports fees such as football, baseball, etc. Inspired by Tristans love for arts and sports.

Follow on Facebook: You Are Loved Project

The mental health crisis in our community is at an all-time high and raising awareness and breaking the stigma is their main focus.

To help give back to this amazing foundation Shop in store from 10AM-4PM at 120 W Broadway • Council Bluffs, IA Or Shop online at dustedcharm.com or on our free app through 11:59PM!

Grab your sweetheart for a night full of laughter, creativity, and sweets. Paint fun portraits of each other while you sip, snack on a charcuterie board, and enjoy a dessert that YOU two make that’s just as sweet as each other’s company. It’s the perfect way to celebrate love, time, and a good excuse for treats and giggles together with your favorite person. No experience needed, just bring your favorite person and your sense of humor..and probably an appetite.

The night will consist of making a dessert that you will be able to bring it to your next portion. During the creative part, you will be painting a portrait of each other as you sit across from one another!

Grab your best gals or pals and treat yourselves to an evening of glitter, laughs, tacky portraits, and culinary delights. This Besties night out is all about celebrating friendship with a craft in one hand and a snack in the other, which is exactly how life should be lived.

We will warm up with delicious treats and a little sip or two before diving into a craft project that promises equal parts fun and mild chaos. Expect colorful supplies, probably some messes, and at least one friend insisting they are “not crafty” before creating a masterpiece worthy of a museum lobby or at least their fridge door.

While your creations dry, cool, or magically transform, we will keep the good vibes going with more sweet bites and savory surprises. Think of it as a friendship feast with a creative twist. By the end of the night you will leave with a handmade treasure, a happy heart, a tacky 90s themed portrait of you and your bestie, and at least five inside jokes you did not arrive with.

Ticket comes with:
- A Dessert
- Charcuterie Board
- 90’s Crafts
- 90’s Tacky Portrait (come dressed in retro!) with PACE Studio Artist Buck Christiansen!

Bring your valentine or galentine to Milk & Honey for a paint and sip evening with Deborah King
Bar and kitchen open at 5pm

We cant wait to paint and sip with you!
