Will I have an assigned table?
The tea is open seating unless you purchase a table of 10. For tables of 10, the ticket purchaser will receive an email from the F&V, fvoc@oceancitylibrary.org, with the table assignment. We ask that the purchaser inform the individuals of the table number assignment to avoid confusion on the day of the event.
