Last week we sent out the first notice for Juleps in June, 2009. We made a mistake in the flyer. The correct date is Friday, June 5, not Friday, June 7.
The party, the Faulkner Society’s annual overture to the summer season, will take place at the lovely residence of Judith “Jude” Swenson, at 426 Vincent Avenue in old Metairie starting at 7 p.m. The event will feature food, wine, music, and, of course,mint juleps served in silver cups.
Tickets are $125 per person and the ticket price includes one silver julep cup. Extra julep cups may be purchased for $35 if ordered in advance. Orders for extra cups must be placed by May 15.
Funds raised for the event will benefit the Faulkner Society’s projects for aspiring authors and literary programming for the general reading public. We hope to see all of you there.
Sincerely,
Rosemary James, Faulkner Society
