Jazz dances in the evening air and the smell of blossoms intoxicate (or maybe it's the wine). Now in its third year, the annual Summer Garden Party at the Conservatory has proven to be a delightful evening showcasing a Tacoma gem.
"It's a fun social time for people to come and enjoy the conservatory and mingle," says W.W. Seymour Conservatory Manager Mary Anderson. Scheduled for Friday, music by jazz trio Musig Christensen Hume will be performed outside in the gazebo adjacent to a roped-off wine garden in view of lush perennials.
Affairs Catering in University Place will provide the eats; expect roast beef and cheddar finger sandwiches made on freshly baked bread, and an array of sugary nibbles: chocolate raspberry, lemon, nightmare, Nanaimo and pecan bars, plus chocolate brownies. Also enjoy fruit platters and mixed nuts while admiring incredible flora. Champagne and wine will be provided by Wildside Wine of Tacoma. Past years have seen alcohol-free tropical punch and sparkling ciders as well.
The $20 ticket price includes admission to the party, two drink tickets, hors d'oeuvres, tickets for savory and sweet plates, live music, a plant to take home and the chance to win glass art from Hilltop Artists. Attire is garden party casual to jeans; everyone is welcome.
[W.W. Seymour Conservatory in Wright Park, Summer Garden Party, Friday, July 22, 5:30 - 7 p.m., 100 tickets available, $20, 316 S. G St., Tacoma, 253.591.5330]
