Holiday Showcase presented by Sterling Wealth Management (Saturday)

Shop, eat, drink — and be merry! — at the Holiday Showcase presented by Sterling Wealth Management on Saturday, Dec. 6 from 12 to 8 p.m. in the Mansion!

Stroll through the decorated Mansion as you shop for unique gifts from selected artisans and businesses and sip on a beverage from the Solarium Bar. Be sure to make reservations* in advance to dine in the Mansion’s Carriage House at noon, 2 p.m. or 5 p.m. (See the menu here.) Showcase attendees can also purchase food on their own from the Greenhouse Café (a short walk/drive from the Mansion), which will serve a limited menu.

Musicians LeeAnn Capace and Judy Deverell will help set the festive mood with a violin-piano duo performing traditional holiday music from 12 to 3 p.m.
