The Flannery O’Connor Childhood Home (FOCCH) annual Peacock Party will be held Friday, October 11, 6 p.m., at the Beach Institute, 502 E. Harris Street. This lively fundraiser will feature libations, heavy hors d’oeuvres, live music, a silent auction and more.

This year FOCCH is celebrating the 30th anniversary of the formation of the Foundation and the purchase of the childhood home. FOCCH is also excited to honor one of its founding members, Gillian Brown.

Costumes inspired by Flannery O’Connor characters, settings or the author’s life are encouraged but optional. All Peacock Party proceeds benefit programming and outreach initiatives at the Flannery O’Connor Childhood Home in Savannah.

Tickets and sponsorships are available online. To learn more, visit flanneryoconnorhome.org.
