More than 20 Passover "tablescapes" by Metro Detroit interior designers, home d?cor mavens and entrepreneurs will star in the Passover Table, from 6-8:30 p.m. Thursday at Temple Beth El in Bloomfield Hills. A fundraiser for the temple's religious school, the second annual event offers table-setting ideas and dramatic artistic interpretations of Passover in advance of the Jewish holiday, which starts April 19 this year. Each table will incorporate traditional symbols of Passover, such as the Seder plate and Elijah's cup. While viewing the tablescapes, guests will be served cocktails and small plates catered by Zack Sklar of Cutting Edge Cuisine, and may glean tips and inspiration from participating table designers and hostesses. Pictured is "Venetian Ghetto, a Sphardic Passover," designed by Helen Katz for last year's event. Tickets are $75 per person, $125 per patron or $200 per patron couple. For tickets or information, call (248) 865-0617 (press 1). Temple Beth El is at 7400 Telegraph Road, Bloomfield Hills.
