The Woman's Association of Morristown Medical Center (WAMMC) is please to announce that Tyvan Hill in the New Vernon section of Harding Township, NJ will be the site of the 19th Mansion in May Designer Showhouse and Gardens, the signature fundraiser of WAMMC. Funds raised from this event will benefit the expansion of the Gagnon Cardiovascular Institute at Morristown Medical Center. The Showhouse will be open to the public daily May 1-31 at 10:00 am. Tickets are $40 beginning April 1-30; $50 thereafter. Fifty designers and landscape architects will transform this gracious 1920s country estate into a place of its former glory. The house was designed by the New York architectural firm of Peabody, Wilson & Brown for John Wesley Castles, Jr. and his wife Dorothea Bradford Smith between 1928 and 29. Castles was a New York lawyer and an investment banker who served in the US Army in both World War I and World War II; his wife was a daughter of the former Vermont Governor Edward Curtis Smith and granddaughter of J. Gregory Smith, Governor of Vermont during the Civil War. For corporate sponsorship opportunities, to volunteer and to learn more about Mansion in May 2020 at Tyvan Hill visit: www.MansionInMay.org. Founded in March 1893 to provide financial support to Morristown Medical Center, part of the Atlantic Health System, WAMMC helps enable the hospital to respond to the changing health care needs of the community, With a volunteer base of over 400 members, WAMMC hosts a number of fundraising events, anchored by the Association's flagship event, Mansion in May Designer Showhouse and Gardens, open to the public every two to three years. WAMMC also operates the hospital's gift shops, The Bargain Box Thrift Boutique, and WAMMC Network TV. The latter created Calling All Kids and its first in- house family television station for young patients and their families to enjoy during hospital stays. WAMMC is an integral part of the hospital's ability to continue bringing cutting-edge technology and superior health services to the community, and has raised more than $40 million to date to support this mission.
