Friends of the Richards-DAR House Museum Foundation Fundraiser
Friends of the Richards-DAR House Museum Foundation fundraiser will occur on Saturday, January 25, 2020 from 6:00 PM to 9:00 PM. Friends of the Richards-DAR House Museum Foundation, a foundation group started this year to provide additional funds for large projects, is holding a special fundraiser to benefit it and Kate Duncan Smith School’s Lane Chapel. Delicious food, wonderful live music, and a silent auction will make this a very special event in support of two significant landmarks. Tickets are limited to 200 and the cost of each ticket is $50.00. If interested, contact the Richards-DAR House Museum at 251-208-7320.
The Christmas Celebration
The Christmas Celebration is scheduled for Saturday, December 7, 2019 from 10:00 am to 4:00 pm and for Sunday, December 8, 2019 from 1:00 pm to 5:00 pm. The theme, “Two Hundred Years of Christmas in Alabama” will coincide with our bicentennial celebration and provide guests an opportunity to travel back in time and view items and decorations that would be appropriate for Christmases from 1819 to the present day. Of course, the two-day event will include scrumptious hors d’oeuvres, musical entertainment, guides dressed in period clothing depending on the era, a bake sale, and a visit with Santa, not to mention our well stocked gift shop for your Christmas shopping. The decorations remain in place for the entire month of December so if Alabama Daughters cannot attend the two-day event, they are encouraged to visit during the remainder of the month for a tour.
