Yorkville Public Library "Tablescape" Fundraiser
April 6, 2024
The Chapel on the Green Historical Society, NFP participated in a first-time “Tablescape” fundraising event at the Yorkville Public Library on Saturday, April 6, 2024 from 10:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. Twelve volunteer “decorators” (or organizations) from the community each designed a “tablescape” display based on one of twelve different seasonal themes, and each table benefitted a designated community organization or charity when attendees voted for that particular table as their “favorite!” Each charity/organization received $5 per vote (and the Library will also receive $5).
The twelve resulting “tablescapes” were fun, creative, and inspirational! The Chapel on the Green decorators (April Morganegg, Sharon Lowy, and Susan Kritzberg) were honored that the Chapel’s Table No. 6 was the top “vote-getter” with the theme “Get Them to The Church On Time!” Benefitting the Chapel on the Green, their table vignette featured vintage china, silver, and glassware, this beautiful Edwardian Era wedding dress (early 1900’s), and several bridal accessories selected from the Chapel Wedding Museum’s amazing historical collection!
