Step into a warm May evening with the sky glowing in soft twilight, welcoming tent lights, and the hum of laughter and live music filling the air. A wave of cool air washes over you, a cold drink finds its way into your hand, and everywhere you look, friends and neighbors are gathering, dressed in their summer best, for an unforgettable night of revelry. This is the Patron Party. The unofficial start of summer on the Coastal Bend and a night where community, celebration, and purpose come together under the stars.This year, we’re reaching even greater heights with our theme, Stars, Stripes & Guiding Lights; an upbeat, red-white-and-blue affair filled with energy, elegance, and heart. Guests will enjoy complimentary valet parking, live musical entertainment, an open bar, and a three-course gourmet dinner from fan favorite, Marco’s, followed by exciting live and silent auctions.
More than just a spectacular social event, the Patron Party fuels the Texas Maritime Museum’s educational programs, operations, and exhibits, ensuring that future generations understand and appreciate the importance of our rich maritime heritage. When you place a bid, share a toast, or simply gather with friends beneath the lights, you’re helping keep that legacy shining bright.
Registration Opens March 13th!
