The 15th annual “Tables du Jour” event is set for April 27, 2019. It will be held in the Mayville State University Campus Center Luckasen Room. Table viewing begins and the silent auction opens at 9:30 a.m. A brunch meal will be served at 11 a.m. A limited number of tickets are available by calling the MSU Foundation at 701-788-4864 or by emailing stacy.buchl@mayvillestate.edu. Tickets must be purchased in advance. Proceeds of the event will benefit Mayville State University students in the form of academic scholarships.
“Tables du Jour,” or “Tables of the Day,” features elaborately decorated tables, each with its own special theme. Décor will range from fun and cute, to whimsical, to very elegant. Volunteer table designers have been encouraged to “think outside the box” and to create with wild abandonment. If past events are an indicator, that is exactly what they’ll do.
A sampling of this year’s table themes includes “Make a Wish!” “ Bubble Bash,” “Hippity Hoppity,” and “For the Birds.”
An open house tables preview is planned on Friday evening, April 26, from 5 to 7 p.m. This will give those who aren’t able to attend the Saturday event an opportunity to stop by the Campus Center Luckasen Room and be amazed by the whimsical, beautiful, creative, and fun tables. Refreshments will be reserved. Cost is $10 per person, payable at the door. Reservations are not needed.
