Board Benefit

Board Benefit, Wheeling’s “must-attend” social event to support the arts, takes place 6:30-9:30pm Friday, August 15, 2025 at the Mansion Museum, Oglebay.

Oglebay Institute’s Board of Trustees invites friends and supporters of Wheeling’s leading arts & cultural organization to gather for this lavish party. Attendees will enjoy gourmet food, desserts, beer garden, live music and an open bar in the elegant Mansion Museum and on its picturesque lawn.

Funds raised engage tens of thousands of Ohio Valley residents and visitors in arts, nature, and history experiences through OI all year long.

This year’s gourmet buffets will be catered by Chef Adam/Chef N Company, with desserts by Wheeling Island Hotel-Casino-Racetrack, and more. Saxophonist Calvin Stemley will provide the music.

Board Benefit 2025 is presented by Spilman, Thomas & Battle, PLLC, with additional support from WVU Medicine Wheeling Hospital, Inc. and WesBanco.

Tickets are $100 per person in advance and $110 at the door. Purchase tickets online, from any board member, or call 304-242-4200.
