HAGERSTON – Calling all designers! The Washington County Museum of Fine Arts is looking for those3 who want to create something “hermosa” (or beautiful) for the museum’s annual fundraiser, Amazing Tablescapes.
The popular fundraiser asks designers to decorate dining tables in elaborate, over-the-top, creative ways, and these must include a table setting. This year, the event has been combined with the opening celebration of the museum’s major exhibition, “Frida Kahlo: Picturing an Icon.” Designers are encouraged to take inspiration from Kahlo’s life, art, artistic milieu and culture to create their tables.
A designer orientation for those wanting to learn more is set for 5 p.m. Tuesday, Dec. 3, at the museum, 401 Museum Dr. Deadline for entering is Jan. 10.
Amazing Tablescapes will be on view at the museum from Tuesday, June 10, through Friday, June 13, concluding with a gala fundraising dinner on Friday, June 13, in which guests will enjoy dinner at the tables, and a first look at the Kahlo exhibition.
Interested designers who would like to participate, should contact Director of Development Beth Smith at 301-739-5727 or [email protected].
