The George Washington Foundation invites the public to participate in A Wee Christmas at Kenmore, a dollhouses and miniatures show that will run December 8 – 30, 2014, on January 3, 2015, for “Twelfth Night” performances.
“This Christmas season, we cordially invite you exhibit your dollhouse, room box, covered vignette or unique display,” said Susan Sherman, education assistant and volunteer coordinator. The George Washington Foundation owns an exact miniature of Historic Kenmore, furnished down to the china on the table and paintings on the walls, which will be the centerpiece of the show. “We’re excited that our dollhouse will have a neighborhood during the Christmas season,” Sherman said.
Each exhibitor will receive two free passes to the Historic Kenmore miniature exhibit and to the December 7 – 30 Gingerbread Contest and Exhibit at George Washington’s Ferry Farm.
To register your miniature for A Wee Christmas at Kenmore, send a digital image of your miniature and a brief description including dimensions to [email protected] by Nov. 15. Exhibits must be no larger than three feet by six feet. Set-up will take place 10 a.m. – 4 p.m. December 6 and 7, or by appointment.
A Wee Christmas at Kenmore will be displayed in the Crowninshield Museum Building, just to the left of the front gate at Kenmore Plantation, 1201 Washington Ave., Fredericksburg.
