Discover Saxonville's Athenaeum Hall, Saturday, October 5, 2013<\/p><\/div>\n

FRAMINGHAM, MA<\/strong> - Discover Saxonville's Athenaeum! The Athenaeum is getting a little help from its \"Friends\".<\/p>\n

Join The Friends of Saxonville for community, culture and cuisine -- a reception and concert to benefit the Restoration of The Athenaeum Community Hall at 7:00pm on Saturday evening October 5th, 2013<\/strong><\/p>\n

Although the exterior of Athenaeum has been restored, the interior is in complete disrepair. Our event goal is to raise $10,000 to help with construction costs, provide furnishings and accessories, (i.e. media equipment and kitchen necessities)<\/em>, and provide operating expense support.<\/p>\n

Event Highlights<\/strong> include delectable Hors d'oeuvres, a cash bar of fine wine and beer, a brief review of the planned restoration of The Athenaeum Community Hall, a concert of Baroque Period selections for Harpsichord and Flute by The Hunt Trio and the event is topped off with decadent desserts, coffee and tea.<\/p>\n

Event Venue<\/strong> is generously donated by Megan Powers in the Dance Studio of Mass Ballet located in the Saxonville Mill, 2 Watson Place (not handicapped accessible). The event is Dressy Casual.<\/p>\n

Event Contribution<\/strong> is $40 per person through 9\/27 or $50 per person after 9\/27.<\/p>\n
