Sheldon Uncorked – an Evening of Wine and Curiosities

Past event
Sep 10, 2017, 5 to 7 PM

The Sheldon Museum presents "Sheldon Uncorked," an evening of wine, hors d'oeuvres, and historic curiosities, offering attendees chances to win fine bottles of wine. The bottles range from bold Cabernets and buttery Chardonnays to refreshing Pinot Grigios and many others in between. The event will take place at the Museum on Sunday, September 10 from 5-7 p.m. and proceeds benefit the Sheldon’s exhibits, collections, and archives. All bottles are worth at least $25 or more with some bottles valued over $70. Tickets are $50 per person and once at the event, numbered corks are for sale for $25 each or 5 for $100, and the number on the cork will correspond to a number on a bottle that would then go to the cork holder. Also that evening, take a look at some of the curiosities from the Sheldon’s collection that are rarely seen, on view for one night only – including a few of Henry Sheldon’s original teeth, the celebrated stuffed cat “Slippers,” an adult cradle, and a Walrus skull! Tickets and information: call the Sheldon Museum, 802-388-2117, online at www.HenrySheldonMuseum.org and at the museum. The Sheldon Museum is located at One Park Street, Middlebury.
