An Afternoon and Evening with India Hicks
EDGE Escapes x Hudson Grace | San Francisco, October 22 & Greenwich, October 24
A private bicoastal experience with designer, author and legendary hostess India Hicks, celebrating her new book Entertaining, with a Side of Chaos: a locally curated afternoon of art and design, an after-hours salon and cocktails at Hudson Grace with personal shopping and a signed copy of the book, a professionally photographed portrait with India, and an intimate dinner with her as guest of honor. Ten places in each city.
A Lowcountry Literary Escape with Mary Kay Andrews & Kristy Woodson Harvey
EDGE Escapes x Lilly Pulitzer | The Dunlin, Johns Island, SC, November 19–20
An overnight escape just outside Charleston with two of the South’s most beloved novelists, Mary Kay Andrews and Kristy Woodson Harvey: an afternoon at The Dunlin with coffee, lemonade and cookies and a Whimsical Wicks candle-making session, an intimate dinner with both authors at Linnette’s, and a farewell breakfast the next morning. In partnership with Lilly Pulitzer. Limited to 15 guests.
Members Only Night
EDGE Escapes | Tribeca, New York City, March 11, 2027
One evening that brings our entire EDGE community together in one beautiful room in Tribeca. There is no featured guest, because you are the guest of honor: an exceptional dinner in a room designed by Kit Kemp, a rare chance to finally share a table with the members you have met across our escapes, and nothing to plan beyond simply showing up. For EDGE members.
