Feather Our Nest 2021: Moonlight at the Manor

On Friday evening October 1, 2021, the Friends of Briar Bush will host our 31st annual Feather Our Nest Gala (FON), Moonlight at the Manor at the Abington Art Center! Guests will enjoy an evening filled with friends, delightful food, cocktails, and unique entertainment under the night sky while directly supporting Briar Bush’s programs through auctions and more.

The Feather Our Nest Online Auction will precede the live event, allowing all community members to participate and have a chance to win a variety of items. All funds raised from the FON auction directly support the 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, Friends of Briar Bush (Federal Tax I.D. 23-7275154), and our mission to inspire people of all ages and backgrounds to celebrate nature.

Since 1974, the Friends of Briar Bush has been inspiring people to celebrate nature by welcoming everyone into our museum, bird observatory, pond, and trails.

The past year has been an exciting time at Briar Bush. Funding from supporters like you has enabled us to offer an increased number of affordable programs for groups and families alike. This year’s highlights are:

- The FOBB’s Scholarship Fund’s success allowed us to provide over 80 classroom programs and 11 weeks of camp for families and children in need.
- Family Nature Night, a program for children with sensory processing disorders, now features Forest Therapy Sessions and a certified Occupational Therapist on-site to support staff and families.
- We continued to host two annual festivals and began monthly Weekend Walks. Both are FREE for the community in an effort to encourage families to spend more time out in nature.
