Tea by the Sea: Supporting St. Madeleine Sophie’s Center

Share

Tea by the Sea presented by Colette Gerard was held at the Marine Room and was attended by longtime supporters of St. Madeleine Sophie’s Center. Guests enjoyed signature cocktails, hors d’oeuvres, tea by the sea, a silent auction and live music. Proceeds benefit the Sophie’s Gallery art program at St. Madeleine Sophie Center. SMSC educates and empowers individuals with I/DD to realize their full potential. The unusually high tides make for an exciting show as the waves crashed against the window as guests were arriving!
