Celebrate Mother's Day in Style
with Tea on the Terrace at Hearst Castle® May 11,
2002
SAN SIMEON, CA - Just in time for Mother's Day,
Friends of Hearst Castle presents its annual Tea on the
Terrace at Hearst Castle on Saturday, May 11, 2002 from
1:30 to 4 p.m.
The public is invited to join members of Friends of Hearst
Castle and their guests for an afternoon of tea and light
refreshments, a raffle of hand-picked prizes, and a fashion
show that, it is safe to say, is unlike any other offered
this Mother's Day. Guests may just feel they have taken
a step back into another, perhaps slightly more glamorous,
era.
The fashions on view at this unique show are specially-selected
examples of what the well-dressed were wearing during
the 1930s heyday of Hearst Castle.® Volunteer docents
and staff members from the Castle's Living History Program
have assembled a special collection of what elegant party-goers
might have been wearing following a high-profile Hollywood
movie premiere.
Special raffle items have been assembled to complement
the afternoon's stylish theme, including a fresh flower
arrangement displayed in (of course) a teapot, a "Blue
Willow" basket, a children's basket of goodies, lunch
for four at the historic Santa Maria Inn, a signed copy
of Victoria Kastner's Hearst Castle, The Biography of
a Country House, an original piece of jewelry from Adrienne
Shivers' Garden Party Collection, and selected reproductions
and adaptations from the Hearst Castle Collection.®
While the timing for Tea on the Terrace is perfect to
celebrate Mother's Day, all are welcome to attend. Tickets
for Tea on the Terrace at Hearst Castle® are $50 per
person. Seating is limited, and reservations must be made
before April 29 by calling Friends of Hearst Castle, 805-927-2138.
