A Vintage Affair
I recently attended A Vintage Affair at The Factory in Franklin on Friday, April 19th sponsored by First Tennessee Bank. What a great event and turnout! Hundreds of items to bid on in the silent and live auction, great food from area restaurants and great wine to taste. It was a wonderful and elegant event! Be sure to be on the lookout for this event next year. You don’t want to miss it, and it’s all for a good cause!
A Vintage Affair is a non profit 501(c)3 organization that is dedicated to raising money for Williamson County charities benefiting women and children in need. In order to fulfill the goal of helping out neighbors in need, AVA hosts various events throughout the year which include: wine, spirit & food tastings, A Fashion Affair – our fashion show, and The Grape Stomp at Animalia. Since its inception in 2001, AVA has contributed over one million dollars to local non profit organizations. Each year AVA chooses several deserving beneficiaries from the community to receive the proceeds for that fiscal year.
