Board Benefit

Don’t Miss Wheeling’s Favorite Summer Party for the Arts!

Board Benefit 2026 | Friday, August 21 |  6:30-9:30 PM | The Mansion Museum, Oglebay.

Some evenings are just different. The Board Benefit is one of them.

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 an elegant grazing table by Table 304. Smooth Jazz music will be provided by saxophonist Calvin Stemley, and a 360 video booth by Lit Photography.

Board Benefit 2026 is presented by Spilman, Thomas & Battle, PLLC, with additional support from WVU Medicine Wheeling Hospital, Inc., and Truist.

Tickets are $110 per person in advance and $120 at the door. Add an Oglebay Institute Board Benefit commemorative wine glass to your ticket for $20.
