Tea for Three: My Mom, My Doll and Me
To Benefit Greenwich Historical Society
What could make an afternoon with your favorite girls even better? A multi-generational family event to benefit the !
On Saturday, May 12, the Historical Society will be serving up tea and treats by the renowned Royal Tea Company, who has catered to “royalty” from the Duchess of York to “queen” of domestic arts Martha Stewart.
Guests are encouraged to dress in teatime finery–including fancy hats–and to bring their favorite dolls appropriately attired. There will be a trunk show offering American Girl-doll-sized fashions including dresses, casual outfits, shoes and accessories designed especially for the event.
Award-winning children’s author, illustrator and educator Timothy Bellavia will lead a 30-minute doll-making workshop that will feature exclusive numbered and stonewashed cloth dolls created especially for the event and honoring notable Greenwich women. Participants will individualize their dolls using yarn, lace, trim, notions, beads, rhinestones and more, and share them over tea. There will also be prizes and a raffle for fabulous items every girl will love.
