Lighthouse of Broward’s 11th Annual Dining in the Dark

Laid-back, island inspired music, food and fun highlight the 11th Annual Dining in the Dark: Island Edition, presented by the Josephine S. Leiser Foundation and benefiting Lighthouse of Broward, beginning at 6:30 p.m. on Saturday, November 15 at Margaritaville Beach Resort, 1111 N. Ocean Drive in Hollywood.

Dining in the Dark guests will be swept away to a vibrant escape where senses take the lead. During the cocktail reception, guests will savor tropical hors d’oeuvres, sip island libations, browse a fabulous silent auction, strike a pose at the photo booth and soak in the ocean breezes. They will then enter an authentic dark dining experience with dramatic, bold and breathtaking moments that awaken the senses. They’ll wear blindfolds during select portions of the evening to feel firsthand the challenges the blind and visually impaired face every day. Dinner is highlighted by a tropical feast, sun-kissed cocktails, live musical entertainment by ReaXtion, high-energy dance floor antics and an exciting live auction. Emcees for the evening are 101.5 LITE FM morning hosts Tamara Gant and Julie Guy.

During the cocktail reception, guests will be treated to a special performance by American Heritage School students, under the direction of Orchestra Director Kris Winselmann. They will perform a full rock-reggae set complete with electric instruments and a brass section.

Robert Judd will be honored as this year’s Lighthouse of Broward’s Outstanding Supporter of the Year. Judd has been a generous supporter of the Lighthouse for many years, championing the organization’s mission with extraordinary dedication. Thanks to his generosity, the Lighthouse has been able to change countless lives, giving hope, dignity and opportunity to people who are blind or visually impaired.

Guests are encouraged to dress in tropical chic attire. VIP tables and tables of 10 are available. Individual tickets are $250 per person, with limited seating available.
