Happenings at Zelda Dearest
A FEW THINGS WORTH
PLANNING AROUND.
From Zelda Fitzgerald Week to evenings at the Parlour Bar, these are the gatherings that give the calendar a little more character.
Some are ticketed, some come and go quickly, and all are best caught at just the right moment.

Art Party: Cyanotypes
Welcome to the wonderful world of Zelda Dearest Hotel and the art of cyanotype — a splashy, sun‑kissed soirée with a 1920s twist. Gather your dearest friends, don your summer best, and drift into an evening where botanicals, cocktails & mocktails, and old‑world craft mingle under the sky.
At the lovely Wine & Roses bar, order a tipple, toast to the night, and settle into a rain‑or‑shine fête of botanical art‑making bliss. We’ll collaborate with sun and water to produce cyanotype (sun print) wonders: a historic photographic process that uses sunlight as our camera. Playing with shape, texture, light, and timing, you’ll design one‑of‑a‑kind prints on paper that honor the delicate beauty of the natural world and mark the moment.
This is an art party — part social gathering, part hands‑on studio. Together we’ll experiment, laugh, and create; each participant will leave with at least three unique cyanotype prints and the practical know‑how to keep making them at home. Join us for an evening of creativity and the timeless joy of making something beautiful by hand.

Zelda's Birthday Bash!
Party like it’s 1926.
We’re throwing a celebration that would make our muse proud. Join us at Zelda Dearest on July 24th (6:00 PM – 10:00 PM) to toast Zelda Fitzgerald’s birthday in true, unapologetic Jazz Age style.
Expect live jazz that demands you move, champagne and libations flowing freely, and an atmosphere built for the bold. Zelda lived out loud—and for one night, we’re doing the exact same.
Dress to impress. We'll see you there.
