Good to know

Questions

What should I wear?

Weekend casual. Dust off your cowgirl or cowboy boots: they're perfect for strolling the sanctuary and meeting the animals. If boots aren't your thing, closed-toe shoes are best.

Should I bring anything?

Please bring a jacket or warm sweater. The evening gets cool once the sun goes down.

Can you accommodate dietary needs?

Yes, dietary needs will be accommodated. Please let us know before the event.

Can I bring my kids?

Yes. Children over the age of 8 are welcome with a ticket purchase. Kids 15 and under can use the $75 kids ticket.

Is the sanctuary accessible?

We're sorry, the sanctuary is not an accessible venue.

Can I get a refund if I can't make it?

We apologize, but we can't refund tickets. Food, music and the evening are planned well in advance. Your ticket purchase can be a tax-deductible donation to the sanctuary.

How do sponsorship tickets work?

Please talk with Andreana about sponsorship tickets.

Can't make it Saturday?

You can still be part of the evening. A gift in honor of Golden Hour goes straight to the animals' care.
