Pearls of Wisdom Party

The Education Foundation hosts the Pearls of Wisdom oyster roast and barbecue at the 24th Street Park where attendees can enjoy live music and an all-you-can-eat buffet of oysters, barbecue, fried chicken, hush puppies, and more. The annual fundraiser benefits VBCPS teachers and students by raising funds to support the Education Foundation’s Adopt A+ Grants program.
