Details

Kick off the holiday season at Hackett House with an evening of shopping, sipping, bidding and celebrating — with a special Peruvian flair!

This year, our annual Holiday Kickoff takes inspiration from the vibrant culture and flavors of Peru, one of Tempe’s Sister Cities connections. Enjoy a festive evening filled with holiday traditions, Peruvian-inspired tastes and plenty of opportunities to shop, mingle and have fun.
THE EVENING WILL FEATURE:

Holiday Shopping at Millie’s Boutique
Get a head start on your holiday shopping with unique Christmas décor, gifts and special finds throughout our beautifully decorated historic Hackett House.

Silent Auction
Bid on a wonderful selection of gifts, experiences and special items — all while supporting Hackett House programs.

Wine Pull
Choose a mystery bottle and see what you take home! Will you uncover an everyday favorite or something extra special?

A Taste of Peru
Enjoy a selection of small bites, sweets and festive flavors and drinks as we bring a little taste of Peru to Tempe.

Cash Bar
Sip, shop and celebrate with wine, beer, specialty drinks and non-alcoholic selections available throughout the evening.

And More Holiday Fun!

Enjoy festive décor, entertainment by the ASU Pitchforks and other surprises as we officially welcome the holiday season at Hackett House.

Gather your friends, make it a date night or come ready to meet someone new. The Holiday Kickoff is the perfect way to start the season while supporting a great cause.

Best of all, this evening is a fundraiser! Proceeds support the educational and cultural programs presented by Hackett House, including School Tours for 6th Graders, the Young Artist Program and Passport to the World.

Reservations are required.
