An Afternoon
Worth Remembering

The Luxury Picnic is our grand opening — a sun-soaked afternoon at Candlewood Lake Park designed for women who dream big and live beautifully. Enjoy curated lunch spreads, live performances by local artists, and inspiring talks from Connecticut's most successful women: entrepreneurs, politicians, and community leaders. Explore a marketplace of women-owned vendors, and leave with new friends, new ideas, and a new sense of what's possible.
