HIGH TEA AT THE HERITAGE
Photography by: Sergio Arriata
The McAllen Heritage Center’s Inaugural “High Tea at the Heritage” was an overwhelming success. Lovely ladies in charming fascinators enjoyed delectable tea sandwiches, scones, macarons, petit fours, fruit tarts, and delicious teas in the perfect historical setting. The museum galleries were filled with elegant, striking, fresh floral centerpieces and vibrant table settings. Bubbly and spirited conversations completed the festive environment.
The event also featured presentations covering the history of high tea by Irma Murray and tea etiquette by Mary Del Paz. Congratulations to the dedicated High Tea committee led by Irma Murray, which included Leigh Wooldridge, Silent Auction Chair, Rebecca Olaguibel, Kay Jancik, and Elva M. Cerda, McAllen Heritage Center’s Executive Director.
