Golden Hour at the Sanctuary

Saturday, October 17, 2026 | 5 to 9pm  |  Held & Healed Animal Sanctuary

Join us for an unforgettable evening at Held & Healed Animal Sanctuary, where compassion, community, and nature come together. ✨

A Night at the Sanctuary is an intimate fundraising evening and a rare opportunity to step behind the gates of our family-run sanctuary, spend time among the animals who call it home, and experience firsthand how healing animals and restoring the land go hand in hand.

🐴 Meet the Animals
Spend time with some of our rescued residents, hear their stories, and discover what lifelong sanctuary truly means.

🍽️ Gather Around the Table
Enjoy a thoughtfully prepared, seasonal farm-to-table dinner surrounded by the peaceful beauty of the sanctuary.

🎶 Live Music at the Sanctuary
Enjoy live music as the sun begins to set and the sanctuary transitions into evening—the perfect backdrop for gathering, connecting, and experiencing Held & Healed after hours.

🎬 Our Story on Film
Experience a special screening of our short documentary and discover the story behind Held & Healed—why we began, the animals who have shaped our journey, and our vision for a sanctuary where animal rescue and regenerative stewardship work together.

🌱 See Regeneration in Action
Learn how the animals who find refuge here become part of a larger story of restoring soil, creating habitat, supporting biodiversity, and caring for the land we all depend on.

🔨 Live Auction
Bid on a curated collection of special experiences, getaways, services, and one-of-a-kind items generously donated by our community—all in support of the sanctuary.

💛 An Evening With a Purpose

Every ticket, auction bid, and donation made during Golden Hour at the Sanctuary directly supports the work of Held & Healed.

Your generosity helps us provide lifelong care and a safe forever home for our rescued animals while allowing us to continue restoring the land through regenerative stewardship and creating opportunities for our community to learn, connect, and become part of the solution.

This isn't simply a night out.

It's an opportunity to experience the sanctuary in a very special way, meet the lives your support touches, gather around the table with a community that cares, and help us build what comes next.

Come for the animals. Stay for the evening. Leave part of something bigger. 🌿
