Tea, cupcakes, crafts, and folk music are always a relaxing and satisfying combination on a weekend afternoon. But this Sunday at the Resistor Gallery on College Street, they're also a way to bolster a good cause. The Hibiscus and Rosehips collective, spearheaded by local folk songstress Erin Lang, will be providing a feast for your tongue, ears, and eyes with a family-friendly tea party, bake sale, art show, and live music performance in support of the Hibiscus Fund for Hope, which helps cancer patients and their families.
