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. The proceeds benefit the Sheldon's exhibits, collections, and archives. ALL bottles are valued at $25 or more with some at over $70. Tickets are $50 per person and participants at the event may purchase a numbered cork, corresponding to the number on a bottle of wine for $25 each or 5 for $100. Also that evening, take a look at some of the curiosities from the Sheldon's collection that are rarely on view, including the celebrated stuffed cat "Slippers", an adult cradle, an walrus skull and even a few of Henry Sheldon's teeth!
