Guest Speakers… Garden Design and Garden Trends
Let’s Get It Together!
S
T
usan Appleget Hurst has been known to let her interest in gardening get her into big trouble. In fact, she was grounded for choosing gardening over homework while in the third grade. Susan had gardened in the Midwest, the South, and on the West Coast (but has yet to create garden havoc in New England.) A practical gardener from the beginning, growing vegetables and herbs, she has branched out (pun intended) to grow beds of flowers, trees and shrubs all over her home yard. Currently, she is the senior associate garden editor of Better Homes and Gardens magazine. Before joining the staff of Better Homes and Gardens, she edited the Country Gardens Gardener’s Almanac and Garden Shed magazine. Susan will speak about “Garden Design and Garden Trends” on Saturday, February 23, at 1:00 p.m.
he Memphis Antiques, Garden & Gourmet Show Lecture Series is excited to have Maryanne Macdonald share her wisdom on how to cut the clutter, get organized, and make things happen in less time and stress. Her lecture, “From Perennials to Pie Safes…Everything in its Place” will be featured on both Friday and Saturday at 10:30 a.m. As owner of Organize by Design, a consultant and Maryanne Macdonald instructor on organization and time management, this mother of two has become a specialist in how to juggle career and family demands. Maryanne Macdonald has been teaching classes on organization and time management through the University of Memphis in the department of Professional and Continuing Education since 1989. A member of the National Association of Professional Organizers, Maryanne serves on the NAPO Certification Project Team and is Vice-President of the Memphis Chapter. Her home has been featured in the Commercial Appeal Home & Garden section and she has been a contributor to articles on organization in At Home Memphis, Memphis Parent magazine, Memphis Senior Housing Guide and Justine Magazine. Relating real life success stories from her professional and personal experiences, Maryanne will entertain, energize, and motivate you to become an organizational success!

Michael spent the next three years as administrator of the Kaufman Americana Foundation, over-seeing the exhibition of the collection at the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C. He wrote the catalogue of the exhibition “American Furniture from the Kaufman Collection.” Since the close of the Kaufman Exhibit, he has been a private dealer in Baltimore, exhibiting at antiques shows, writing articles on antiques, and lecturing to groups throughout the country.

Madonna Circle…1936-2007 Madonna Circle is an organization of approximately 450 Catholic women. Begun in 1936 The Circle provides volunteer efforts and charitable donations to numerous groups and charities in the Mid-South. Annually, members provide hundreds of service hours. The yearly fund raising event for Madonna Circle is their nationally acclaimed Memphis Antiques, Garden & Gourmet Show. Begun in 1976, as the Memphis Antiques Show and Sale, in 1993 it was expanded to become the show now known as Memphis Antiques, Garden & Gourmet Show. Fifty percent of the proceeds benefit a primary recipient(s) and the remaining funds benefit approximately twenty-five other nondenominational charities. Madonna Circle has over seventy years of service to the community and has donated nearly two and a half million dollars to worthy charities. We are proud of all we have achieved for our community in terms of time and dollars given. We sincerely appreciate and are thankful for the support from those who make our efforts possible throughout the year. The Primary recipient of the 2008 Show is FirstWorks, Inc.
