Shop, Sip and Support Northside! Friday, April 24th

Supporting Northside has never been easier—or more enjoyable. Join us for an evening of great company and a little retail therapy at a private, after-hours shopping mixer on Friday, April 24th from 6–8 PM at embellish boutique.

Hosted by Northside parents M. Cecilia Bocanegra (’25, ’29) and Tracy Finn (’28), this special event offers the perfect blend of community and giving back. 100% of ticket proceeds benefit Northside, and both embellish and Apero w**e bar will donate 20% of all sales during the event when you mention Northside.

With Mother’s Day just around the corner, this is the ideal opportunity to get a head start on thoughtful gifts while enjoying w**e and light bites generously provided by Apero w**e bar. Make it a full evening - gather friends to start with an aperitif, or wind down after you shopped 'til you dropped, at Apero, where 20% of your check will also support Northside (just be sure to mention Northside!).

Can’t make the mixer? You can still participate.
Shop at embellish throughout the day on April 24th and 20% of your purchase will be donated back to Northside when you mention the school at checkout. Prefer to shop online? Simply include “Northside” in the order notes to ensure your purchase gives back. Plus, enjoy free shipping on all orders over $50.

Dads and students - consider this your shortcut to meaningful Mother’s Day gifting while supporting your school community.
