Grace Farms
365 Lukes Wood Road
New Canaan, CT

Join us for an inspiring evening featuring Julie Wainwright, an e-commerce pioneer and the founder and former CEO of The RealReal, as she shares her entrepreneurial journey and insights from her book, Time to Get Real: How I Built a Billion-Dollar Business that Rocked the Fashion Industry. Wainwright has transformed the way people buy and sell fashion, jewelry, and art while championing sustainability, responsibility, and circularity.
 
The afternoon will include a lively conversation with Julie, a demonstration by a stylist on styling timeless wardrobe pieces, and a thoughtfully curated dinner featuring local and sustainable flavors. Each guest will receive a copy of Wainwright’s book to take home, making this a truly memorable experience.
 
Proceeds from this program support Grace Farms Foundation's mission across five initiatives, the ongoing preservation of Grace Farms’ natural landscapes, and innovative solutions to create a more humane and equitable future.
