On December 4, the General Lew Wallace Study & Museum will be celebrating the 20th Annual Holiday Tea & Fashion Show. It is a lovely way to welcome the Holiday Season. Our theme this year is An Early American Christmas in recognition of the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence in 1776. Again this year, we will be offering unique fashions from the local, family-owned store Denhart’s Mercantile. We will also be introducing our guests to holiday décor by A Sprig of Lime!With models showcasing beautiful ensembles, experience the creativity of Denhart’s Mercantile as they offer the latest in fashion—clothing, jewelry & accessories, gifts and home décor, shoes, boots, and even clothing for the men and children and grandchildren in your life! Their curated looks are fresh, on-trend, and beautifully accessorized.
The designs by Denhart’s will be complemented by the beautifully decorated Elston Homestead. Holiday decorations, by Kellie Maxwell-Algate, owner of A Sprig of Lime. They will decorate with a vintage vibe designed to delight and inspire guests. A Sprig of Lime offers fresh flower arrangements and gifts for every occasion. The store carries unique lines of holiday ornaments, everyday gifts, special occasion gifts, artwork by local artists, gifts, jewelry, and even sweet treats!
To further the Holiday Spirit, the Glee Club from Wabash College, under the direction of Juan Hernandez with music by Cheryl Everett, will be performing both holiday classics and some delightful, unexpected songs.
Finally, there is the food! Extraordinary sweets and savories, tea and coffee served on fine china and the Elston silver make this a unique event in Crawfordsville. In a very real sense this afternoon of hospitality continues traditions started by Maria Elston, mother of Susan Wallace and Joanna Lane, 190 years ago.
Our thanks to Wabash College for helping us host this event. Proceeds from the event support both the General Lew Wallace Study & Museum and the Montgomery County Historical Society/Lane Place. We hope that you can join us!
