Bourbon and Boxwood 2025

Thank you for supporting Bourbon and Boxwood and Washington Heritage Museums!

We extend our heartfelt gratitude to everyone who made this year’s Bourbon and Boxwood celebration truly unforgettable. Your presence, generosity, and enthusiasm helped transform a spirited garden party into a powerful tribute to history, community, and culture.

This year, we were especially honored to recognize Gail Braxton with the inaugural Gail Braxton Distinguished Service Award for her extraordinary legacy. Gail’s unwavering commitment over four decades has shaped the very soul of Washington Heritage Museums. Her leadership, passion, and tireless volunteerism continue to inspire us all—and her impact will echo for generations.

Thanks to our sponsors, donors, and guests, Bourbon and Boxwood remains one of the region’s most anticipated events. Your support directly sustains our five historic properties and the educational programs that bring their stories to life. Because WHM receives no ongoing government funding, your contributions are not just appreciated—they are essential.

Whether you visited with community friends, bid in the silent auction, or raised a glass in celebration, you played a vital role in preserving our shared heritage. As soon as the photos are available, we will post them here so that you can continue the celebration.

Let’s keep the momentum going! Mark your calendars—our 2026 event, commemorating America's 250th, will be held on October 3, 2026. Want early access? The 2026 sponsorship packet will be available soon!
