Key West Woman's Club Tropical Luncheon & Garden Party

Celebrate the flavors, stories, and spirit of the Keys at the Tropical Luncheon & Garden Party, a charming revival of a cherished 1950s tradition hosted by the Key West Woman’s Club. 
 
Presented in partnership with the Key West Art & Historical Society, the event also offers guests an insider preview of their Smithsonian-affiliated exhibition: FOOD: Celebrating Conch Cuisine. Curator Dr. Cori Convertito will be on hand to share behind-the-scenes stories from the exhibit and insights into the culinary traditions that define Key West.
 
Enjoy an elegant buffet lunch prepared by acclaimed Chef Martha Hubbard, featuring the vibrant tropical fruits of South Florida, fresh local seafood, and select dishes inspired by the 1949 Key West Woman’s Club cookbook, a delicious nod to the event’s roots.
 
We’re thrilled to welcome bestselling mystery author Lucy Burdette (aka Roberta Isleib), who will share an intimate look at how she crafts the Key West Food Critic Mystery Series, drawing inspiration from real people, local landmarks, and iconic island recipes.
 
Elevated garden party attire is encouraged.  Think refined island elegance, breezy dresses, linen suits, and your most fabulous hat.
 
Join us for an unforgettable afternoon of island flavors, fascinating tales, and festive garden-party charm.
