Tablescapes 2025

Tablescapes 2025

The event is over for this year!  Now on to planning 2026.  But before we do that, we have many people to thank.

A very special thank you to the Chabot Family and The North House for their generosity, assistance and outstanding support.

Thank you to Terri Wilson, President of the Avon Historical Society, for the many hour she devotes on a volunteer basis to the Society, to TABLESCAPES, and to the Town of Avon overall. Recently, she was named the 2024 Avon Citizen of the Year.

Thank you to the  volunteers at the entrance table and tag sale, and all of those who help moving our exhibitors in and out on set up and tear-down days!

Thank you to all of our TABLESCAPES Exhibitors and everyone who helped support them to make this event so successful.

Thank you to our Sponsors for their support of TABLESCAPES and our mission to raise funds for the new Avon History Museum.

Finally, thank you to our ATTENDEES, for your continued interest in this event and for your financial support of this fundraiser.

Table #14 “Thanks for the Post ” By: Tracy Gerace, Volunteer | H.O.P.E. Partners of Farmington

It's just like magic today to get a text or message instantly from friends and family. Back in 1908, Mildred Henry loved getting postcards from friends and family. Imagine how exciting it must have been! She lived in the Farmington Valley her whole life, mainly in Riverton. She was my grandfather's cousin. Luckily for us, she saved all of these postcards. It is now my pleasure to share them with you! Enjoy!
