For four decades, Toast of the Town, St. David’s Foundation’s iconic series of eclectic events, has showcased the best of Central Texas with hundreds of unforgettable celebrations. While the community has evolved over the years, Toast of the Town has grown along with it, with every month of May filled with parties featuring stunning venues, sensational special guests, and celebrated chefs.
For this special event, attendees gathered at The Music Box House, one of Austin’s most magnificent homes, and were treated to music by nine-time Grammy Award-winning musician, Ray Benson. Benson, who is a board member for St. David’s Foundation, also served as one of this year’s honorary chairs of the Toast of the Town Committee.
This was a spectacular evening of music, art, and architecture against the backdrop of expansive views of Lake Austin. The incredible design elements throughout the house feature a stunning spiral staircase, an astonishing window that spans two stories with breathtaking views of the lake, and 1,000 tons of stone that were chiseled to give the house its remarkable and notable shape and incredible lines. Party guests enjoyed legendary music in an architectural masterpiece while enjoying Still Austin and Lalo Tequila custom cocktails as well as scrumptious bites from Austin Catering.
Toast of the Town raises critical funds for the St. David’s Neal Kocurek Scholarship, the largest healthcare scholarship program in the state of Texas. For more information, visit toastaustin.org.
