The Cultural Arts Council Douglasville/Douglas County (CAC) brings back The Mad Hatter’s Tea Party, an annual favorite since CAC’s earliest days on Saturday, March 18th from 11 am - 2 pm. The Mad Hatter’s Tea Party is a fun and creative opportunity for children from three (3) to ten (10) years of age to have an interactive day of fun based on Lewis Carroll’s classic, Alice in Wonderland. Admission is $15 for each participant, youngster or grown-up ($10 for CAC members).
This spring celebration for children and families will be held on the grounds of the CAC. Families can discover the magic with flamingo croquet, join in a musical sing-a-long, or in a storytelling session; participate in an egg hunt; pin the grin on the Cheshire cat; Be A Star with “Words in Motion,”. Be ready for the tea party by enjoying photo booth fun; face painting; coloring fun. And be creative while decorating a cookie to eat at the tea party.
To spark creativity, attendees are encouraged to wear their best spring bonnets. Two prizes will be given for “Most Creative” and for “You and Me”. Children are reminded to bring baskets to collect their eggs at the egg hunt. The Cheshire Cat will wear a grin, the Mad Hatter will serve tea, and, knowing him, the White Rabbit will probably be late.
