CCLC’s Annual Garden Party
Ihope that everyone had a great Memorial Day weekend. Although the weather wasn't the best, it was still nice to be off from work, to relax and enjoy time with family and friends.
The Child Care Learning Center will hold its 5th Annual Garden Party at Mount Prospect in Little Washington on Saturday, June 16, from 5 to 8 p.m. and the public is invited! This year’s fundraiser at Mount Prospect, with its historic home and newly renovated barn overlooking the town of Washington, is the perfect location for the Little House on the Prairie themed garden party. Enjoy delicious food and drinks, live and silent auctions, and community fellowship in support of Rappahannock County’s youngest citizens.
For more than 40 years The Child Care Learning Center, a non-profit 501(c) (3) organization, has provided excellent early childhood programs to our community. The latest brain research supports the importance CCLC places on active learning, language development, and play for each age group, based on a nationally recognized and research-based curriculum and assessment system. CCLC is accredited by the National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC). NAEYC administers the largest and most widely recognized national, voluntary, professionally sponsored accreditation system for all types of early childhood schools and child care centers.
CCLC’s mission is to provide fully accredited preschool, childcare, and after school programs for local children, at as low a cost to families as possible. CCLC serves all children, including children with disabilities, and offers scholarships for families who cannot afford full tuition. Attending the garden party is an excellent way to support CLLC and help ensure that the children in our community have access to high quality care and programming learning situations.
Tickets are $100 per person. Mount Prospect is located at 30 Mt. Prospect Lane, Washington. Tickets are limited. Please call 540675-3237 or email rappcclc@ gmail.com to reserve your tickets.

NEW EXHIBITION
Gay Street Gallery has a new exhibition opening on Saturday, June 16. Paintings will be on display by Freya Grand, Lotta Helleberg and Kevin H. Adams. Freya’s recent solo exhibition at the National Museum of Women in the Arts in Washington D. C., was aptly titled “Minding the Landscape.”
Helleberg’s striking bound works currently focus on ordinary, insignificant, and sometimes unwanted plants. Adams, whose studio is adjacent to the Gallery, presents paintings of Cape Cod, his favorite place away from home in Rappahannock County.
Beverages and refreshments will be served during the reception from 4 to 7 p.m.
