About this Event

Join us on Thursday, August 1st at 5:30pm for Reflections on the River, previously Dinner on the Bridge! We are thrilled to be hosting our event inside at Rundel Memorial Building, located at 115 South Ave, Rochester, NY 14604, while the Pont De Rennes Bridge has ongoing construction. We are continuing to build our sustainably focused urban state park at High Falls. Enjoy an evening of cocktails, live music, wise words from Dr. Kathryn Grow Allen, live auction, delicious appetizers and grazing stations from Root Catering, desserts, and more!


This years event will be cocktail style, instead of seated tables, ensuring more space to mix and mingle! Rest assured, there will be lounge areas and cozy nooks to sit at as well. This event is rain or shine. Cocktail hour will be held on the terrace outside if weather permits.


Celebrate Our History Through Famous Rochestarians from the Past!


We will celebrate Rochester’s incredible history through an art project exploring history’s Heros of Rochester. Local artists have ordaned these figures as a part of our reflection of history, past and present. Many of them are well-known – but many of them have also been mostly forgotten to history and time. This project intends to educate, illuminate, and delight Rochester’s citizens. The auction of the evening will highlight on these Rochester figures and the history that they carry with them. Have a chance to own a piece of Rochester history!


Reflections on the River supports Greentopia’s Green Visions — our workforce development program for youth located in the City of Rochester’s JOSANA and Joseph Ave neighborhoods. By joining us for dinner, you’re helping to build a greener Rochester and combat urban blight, crime, youth unemployment, and poverty. Your support enables local youth the opportunity to create green spaces throughout our community with training and knowledge on how to run a small business. Green Visions has been strengthening Rochester neighborhoods for close to a decade and is now poised to support our urban state park, coming soon!
