You asked, we listened! Introducing a spring date for our popular Historical Tea event:

This year marks the 150th anniversary of the publication of Little Women by Louisa May Alcott. Come prepared to celebrate women authors of the 19th century! From Jane Austen to Charlotte Perkins Gilman, women have contributed much to the literary canon. Join us for an afternoon tea with finger sandwiches and pastries. All are welcome!

This event will include an optional sharing by your fellow enthusiasts. If you wish to participate, you may come prepared with one or both of these options:

1. Bring an excerpt from your favorite book by a 19th century female author to read aloud
2. Come dressed as your favorite character or author and participate in a fashion show

Included in the ticket price:

• Finger-sandwiches, croissants, & pastries
• A tasting of teas popular in the mid-19th century
• Special access to objects from the museum collection

Tickets $43
