The Great Gatsby
Let us take you back to the time when extravagant parties were the norm, prohibition was in effect, people danced, lights glittered and unbridled romance was in the air – the roaring ’20s comes to life at the Stimson-Green Mansion.
The music, the cocktails, the food, and Gatsby set the stage for one of these lavish parties. Upon arrival, enjoy flowing glasses of champagne and scrumptious hors d’oeuvres, while downstairs twist and tangle your way with a professional dance instructor. Listen to spiraling notes of Jazz performed live, show-off your new moves on the dance floor, and indulge in a customized course-by-course passed dinner, reminiscent of this era when socializing and having fun were of more importance than sitting down to dine. End your evening with decadent desserts, liquors and coffee.
