MIDDLETOWN—The public has a chance to enjoy the Middletown Garden Club’s enchanting decorations in Morrison Hall. The mansion was open to the public  Dec. 5-6 and will be again Dec. 12-13. Garden Club member Linda Mulligan has been participating for three years. “It’s just really fun to work on and it’s beautiful when it’s all done.”

Mulligan says the club decides on a theme, which this year is “The Mansion is All Aglow with Victorian Elegance.” A committee is assigned to each room which decides how to fit the theme. Several heavily-laden Christmas trees anchor the decorations. She said most tree decorations are stored in the mansion from year to year. But many are hand-made in line with the theme.

Donations are accepted for the Peter Alberghini Inspirational Scholarship.
