The Middletown Garden Club
presents A Fine Prospect, a flower show at the Wadsworth Mansion, 421
Wadsworth Street in Middletown, on Wednesday, October 30th from 1-5
pm. Admission is free.
The show features floral arrangements
that interpret Colonel and Mrs. Clarence Wadsworth’s elegant lifestyle and the
mansion’s flawless architecture and impressive landscape. In addition to floral
arrangements crafted by Master floral arrangers from Connecticut and Rhode
Island, the show will include a horticultural display of flowers and plants
grown by exhibitors; a conservation exhibit will highlight the work of the club
and community leaders to restore the Wadsworth Mansion.
At its peak, in 1934, the
estate hosted more than 1000 guests who attended the wedding reception of the
Wadsworths' son and daughter in law. Now,
the magnificently restored city-owned estate is the site of showers, weddings,
parties, concerts and corporate and charity events.
The public is welcome to
enjoy the flower show at the Mansion on October 30th. Directions can be found here.
