A one-of-a-kind event for a
one-of-a-kind organization.

Join us for the joyous return of the Shining Stars Dinner Gala to benefit The Arc of Bergen and Passaic Counties:

Tuesday, April 29th
6:00 pm
at White Beeches Golf and Country Club in Haworth, New Jersey.

This event is generously presented by
The Sicilian Family Charitable Trust

The evening will feature five Chefs coming together to craft one incredible dinner. The fun starts with an extended cocktail hour, featuring specialty cocktails, passed hors d’oeuvres and photographs. You’ll be treated to entertainment, and have the opportunity to bid on a full array of auction items. Then it’s time for the amazing meal. An appetizer, a pasta course, an exquisite entree and a dessert, all crafted specifically for this event.

All proceeds from the event will benefit The Arc of Bergen and Passaic Counties, an organization dedicated to assisting individuals with developmental disabilities and their families. 

Meet the Chefs

We’ve gathered some incredible talent to craft an exceptional meal. More details, including the dishes each Chef will prepare, are coming soon.
