Indianapolis Monthly Current Issue


Nature Calls

With their standard hors d’oeuvres and wine-by the-case, gallery openings can be a dime a dozen. A little dull, even.

And in the midst of the Doodles’ pop- and dance-infused episodes, they dole out lessons on sharing, sibling rivalry, and more.

RAIN is a multi-media, multi-dimensional experience...a fusion of historical footage and hilarious television commercials from the 1960s lights up video screens and live cameras zoom in for close-ups. "Uncanny! RAIN are a quartet of fine musicians in their own right-as The Beatles, they triumph!" cheers the Boston Herald. "An adoring Valentine to The Beatles," declares the Washington Post. Sing along with your family and friends to such Beatlemaniac favorites as "Let It Be," "Hey Jude," "My Guitar Gently Weeps," "Come Together" and "Can't Buy Me Love."

Victorian Holiday Tea - 12/6/08(2)
December 6, 2008 (Sat): Victorian Holiday Tea 2-4 PM Many of our most beloved Christmas traditions became popular in the Victorian era, including the Christmas tree. Another favorite indulgence dates back that far too—afternoon tea. Enjoy the elegant trappings of a Victorian Christmas Tea at the Morris-Butler House. Tour all three floors of the 1865 landmark, lavishly decorated for the holidays, and learn about Victorian Christmas traditions both familiar and unfamiliar. The tour ends with old-fashioned flavored tea, Cranberry-Orange Scones, Cucumber Sandwiches, Spice Cookies, Gingerbread, Victorian Snow Cake, and Cinnamon Orange Tea and the making of a special holiday craft—an event guaranteed to usher in a meaningful holiday season. Tea provided exclusively by Tea’s Me Café. Tickets are $25/member of Historic Landmarks Foundation of Indiana, $30 non-member (membership available for additional $15). Reservations required. Please contact the Morris-Butler House staff at 317.636.5409 or mbhouse@historiclandmarks.org for reservations.
