Bourbon & Bowties is your destination for fine cocktails, food and fun - and it's all for a great cause. The QG Community Charities' annual fundraiser, a.k.a., the area's premier charity event of the year, will be held outdoors at the historic B&O Railroad Museum in downtown Baltimore.
Guests will indulge in top-rated bourbon, beer and wine, in addition to world-class cigars, and delectable food from the area's best dining establishments. A live auction hosted by WBAL TV personalities Pete Gilbert and Jason Newton rounds out the evening.
Over the last several years, Bourbon & Bowties has raised more than $500,000 for organizations including Healthcare for the Homeless, The Oyster Recovery Partnership, the Semper Fi & America's Fund, Harlem Lacrosse of Baltimore, and the Cool Kids Campaign.
