Fat Tuesday is not just about filling your face with Paczki's in Bay City! Bay Arts Council, in association with Chesny's Keswick Manor, has announced the date for the 2nd annual "Bohemian Rhapsody" fundraiser!

This mystical evening will be held on Fat Tuesday, February 24th at Chesny's Keswick Manor, located at 1800 Center Avenue in Bay City. Festivities will begin at 6:00 p.m. and will continue until approximately 9:30 p.m. Tickets are $50 per person.

Party goers will be greeted by musical minstrels along with a wide array of beverages and delicacies to satisfy any pallet and adventurous taste.

There will be New Orleans inspired hors d'oeuvres served all evening including Cajun Ravioli and Chicken and Andouille Sausage Skewers created by featured chef Hermann Schwaiger of Petit 4 Catering. Ideal Party Store will host a wine and beer tasting; the beer will feature those brewed in Michigan and the wine will be chosen from Ideal's choice selections. Beer and wine will also be available to order with a percentage of the proceeds going back to the Bay Arts Council.

According to a recent Press Release, Executive Director for Bay Arts Council, Joy Butler, stated that the committee for the event decided to keep the same theme from last year because of the overwhelmingly positive response. "It's a little more mysterious and definitely more fun then just going to a Mardi Gras type celebration and bringing home some beads," she said.

Butler used tarot card and horoscope readings as some examples that will add to the mystique of the evening. There will be a $5 donation for each of these "experiences".

The event is meant to raise funds for some of the programs put on by the Bay Arts Council through the year such as "Wednesdays in the Park" and the "Young People Summer Series". Due to the success of last year's event the Bay Arts Council is planning on even more revelers this year.

For more information or to purchase tickets call the Bay Arts Council at (989) 893-0343 or visit their website at Bay Arts Council . To purchase tickets on-line, visit Keswick Manor and click on Bohemian Rhapsody Tickets.
