Approximately 200 people attended Home of Guiding Hands’ 4th Annual Arts & Tea Celebration. Held Sunday, May 31st, at the Ronald Reagan Community Center in El Cajon, the event raised funds for Home of Guiding Hands’ (HGH) comprehensive services for people with developmental disabilities and their families.
“It was a huge success,” said HGH Events Coordinator Marcy Blumberg. “Final figures are still being tallied, but this was a wonderful event and all of the attendees had a great time.” The event appealed to all ages, with attendees ranging from 2-years-old to 80. “It was wonderful to see multiple generations enjoying themselves and supporting Home of Guiding Hands at the same time,” Carney said. More than 30 HGH residents also attended.
Guests enjoyed a unique shopping experience, as well as specialty desserts and tea fare. Artisans represented at the event included Christine Benson, DonnaSarah Designs, Connee Johnson (connee j designs), Lynda Muse, Claire Tietje, Lynnette Vail (Soaps and Scents), Terry Whyte (Golden Artistry Jewelry Design).
