The 26th Annual Spring Garden Party at Tudor Place will take place Wednesday, May 23. The annual fundraiser supporting the 1816 National Historic Landmark museum, is chaired by Amy Gross and Megan Paleologos in honor of the late Elizabeth Powell, their friend and a friend to the museum. A long-standing spring tradition in Georgetown and the capital region, the fundraiser welcomes the community to celebrate the beauty of the gardens and the grandeur of the mansion. As an estate, Tudor Place has thrived through more than two centuries, serving six generations of one family. As a public museum, it enters its 30th year in 2018 and has served more than 400,000 visitors to date with admired and award-winning education, collections, and research programs. Loyal support from members and donors since its 1988 opening has advanced the museum’s mission of bringing people closer to their own stories and the American story.
