The 25th Annual March of Dimes Signature Chefs Auction features the talents of over 20 chefs, restaurants and local food celebrities and allows guests the unique opportunity to sample the gourmet “signature” dishes of premier chefs. In addition to “elegant grazing,” guests bid on various travel, entertainment and dining packages during the silent and live auctions. A cocktail reception begins at 5:30 p.m., followed by dinner and program from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. Dino Cartwright will serve as emcee.

The event funds the March of Dimes’ mission to fight premature birth, birth defects and infant mortality. Table and sponsorship levels begin at $2,500, and the event is usually a sellout.
