BFAIR’s “BFAIR in Bloom” Signature Fundraising Event Raises $40,000 

June 24, 2026 (North Adams, MA) – BFAIR is proud to announce the outstanding success of its annual BFAIR in Bloom Signature Fundraising Event, held on Wednesday, June 4, 2026, at the Proprietor's Lodge. The evening raised an incredible $40,000 in support of BFAIR's programs and services for individuals with disabilities and their families throughout the Berkshire region. 


The event brought together community members, business leaders, and supporters for a beautifully curated evening filled with craft tastings, delectable desserts, live music, and stunning floral arrangements. Guests enjoyed tastings from Antimony Brewing, Berkshire Brewing Company, M.S. Walker, and Village Garage Distillery, alongside desserts by Berkshire Cannoli. The Flower Lab Bouquet Bar transformed the venue with a breathtaking floral design, while Patrick Gray provided the evening's musical backdrop. Event photography was captured by Jessica Ann Photography. 


“We are still completely blown away by the beauty and generosity of this evening.  The support we received from our sponsors, partners, and guests made this event truly extraordinary.  Every dollar raised goes directly toward supporting individuals with disabilities and their families in our community – and that impact is immeasurable, said Theresa Denette, Interim COO.”
