THE IDEA
Inspiring landscapes. World-class dining. Intimate live music. An unforgettable evening.
Named in the spirit of Embers by Ojibway author Richard Wagamese. It honors “the embers from all the relationships that have sustained and defined us.” Five Embers gathers musical artists, culinary masters, and patrons who have a deep appreciation for craftsmanship and natural beauty.
A few times a year, our community meets in extraordinary places to share food, art, music, stories, and conversations that inspire creativity and unexpected collaboration.
Every gathering leaves behind something rare and uncommon, a unique circle of people connected by the sparks they created together.
