April Art Guild Luncheon

On April 11th, Rams Hill was the venue for the Borrego Springs Art Guild's Tea Party Luncheon, a special event with an entrance fee of $30, for Guild members and their friends. This gathering was a celebration of local art and culture, attracting a diverse group of art enthusiasts for an enjoyable afternoon.


The day included a variety of activities such as a raffle, a silent auction of unique art pieces, and a half-price purse sale. The hat contest was particularly engaging, featuring an array of creative entries like intricate butterfly hats, playful McDonald's fry hats, and elegant small headbands with mini hats, along with a standout cowboy hat worn by Richard Gray from the Borrego Springs Concert Association, all adding a festive flair to the event.


Guests indulged in an 'Afternoon Tea' that included a selection of savory bites like Smoked Salmon Crostini and Quiche Bites, complemented by sweet desserts. For those preferring a lighter fare, a Seasonal Berry Salad was also offered. Additionally, a Hot Tea Bar and various other beverages were available, with alcoholic options provided for an extra charge.


The Tea Party was an excellent opportunity for Guild members and their friends to connect and reinforce their commitment to promoting local art and culture. The Borrego Springs Art Guild, a non-profit organization, organizes such events to foster community engagement and make art accessible to everyone in the area.

The seamless flow of the event was expertly managed by the announcer, Jeanne Plekon, a well-regarded artist and prominent member of the local art community.
