Chautauqua Institution

Annual Mad Hatter's Tea Party Set For Sunday

 

 

The Mad Hatter and Alice in Wonderland at the Mad Hatter's Tea Party in 2007. They are otherwise known as Jim Roselle of WJTN and Alice O'Grady.

The Mad Hatter's Tea Party is set for 3 p.m. Sunday at Celebration Hall in Mayville. This year, the event is a mother-daughter tea party with Mad Hatter Jim Roselle as the master of ceremonies.

Entertainment will be provided by the Junior Guilders of Jamestown under the direction of Helen Merrill. Kent Nappenberger, harpist, will play throughout the event.

The Chinese auction will feature gift baskets of all kinds of goods, from an iced tea set to children's toys. Door prizes, including a one-day gate pass to Chautauqua Institution, have been contributed by local businesses.

Tea sets and other goods from Home Chic in Mayville will be on display.

The fashion show this year will be organized by Pat Finson. Accessories from Pat's and Chautauqua Wearhouse shops at Chautauqua Institution will also be on display.

Both these shops, as well as Surroundings in Westfield, have tickets to the tea party at $15 for adults and $5 for age 16 and under.

The fashion show models are current and past board members of Court Appointed Special Advocates of Chautauqua County. The event is a benefit for CASA, an organization that trains volunteers to work with children who are in foster care because of parental abuse or neglect.
