Linden Place Mansion Bicentennial Jubilee
June 11, 2010 |
Linden Place Mansion will be celebrating its bicentennial all year, but the signature event – her Bicentennial Jubilee – is right around the corner. On Friday, June 11th, Bristol’s crown jewel will open her doors for the party of the year, a celebration of Linden Place through the ages.
Guests will be welcomed through the main entrance of the mansion with rum punch, hors d’oevures, and lively entertainment of the period by authentically attired performers. Music, mannerisms and magic will recreate the festive ambiance of the mansion in its heyday, when she hosted captains of industry, presidents and politicians. The décor, created by members of the Bristol, Barrington and Bayberry Garden Clubs, will evoke the decorations created by Colonel Colt for the mansion’s 100th birthday in 1910. Guests are invited to enjoy the mansion and grounds, and rarely seen items, including antique cars and Senator James DeWolf’s 200 year-old carriage, will be on display.
Russell Morin Catering has created a special menu of tapas stations for the event, featuring traditional, seasonal and local delicacies. As they did a century ago, guests will dance the night away in the ballroom, with Avenue A playing swing, jazz and popular dance tunes. Tickets for this historic night of food, fun, and fabulous entertainment are $75 per person, and they are limited.
