Wine, Music & Mardi Gras In Strongsville Set For Jan. 25

STRONGSVILLE, OH — The 11th annual Wine, Music and Mardi Gras event to benefit Arts in Strongsville will be held Jan. 25. The celebration's proceeds support the free "A Day at the Chalet" event and funds grants for seniors going into the arts.

The Wine, Music and Mardi Gras event will be held at the Walter F. Ehrnfelt Event Center in Strongsville from 7:30 p.m. to midnight. Tickets are $45 and include wine tastings, a Hurricane & martini bar tasting, food stations and musical performances. There will also be a tarot card reader, a 50/50 drawing and dancing. Tables of 10 are available for purchase.

Guests are encouraged to wear sophisticated casual attire, a la a cocktail lounge. To purchase tickets, call Cindy Baldin at 216-973-1488 or Amy McEntee at 216-973-0844.

Proceeds from the Jan. 25 event will help fund the popular "A Day at the Chalet" festival. Each year, Arts in Strongsville hosts the outdoor arts festival at the Cleveland Metroparks chalet on Valley Parkway.

The event gives both children and adults a space to engage with the arts, to meet artists, and to have some fun. Activities for families have included face painting, temporary tattoos and craft. In 2019, guests also took part in a collaborative art project.
