Raising Spirits, Inc is excited to present the 4th Annual Bourbon Benefit.

The exclusive event will take place on Friday, October 20th, 2023.   Doors will open at 6 pm with a live auction starting at 8 pm. The tasting celebration will be hosted at Garment Factory Events (101 E Wayne Street Franklin, IN 46131) in their beautiful, historically restored 1920’s venue perfect for the tasting celebration.

Attendees will be allowed tastings of bourbons from distilleries all over the country. Distilleries are also welcome to bring other spirits for your enjoyment. Would you love to come, but bourbon isn’t your thing? Not to worry!
