Henrico 250 - Tea at the Tavern
Partner Event
November 23, 2024 @ 2:00 PM - 4:00 PM EST
Glen Allen, VA 23060
Travel back in time 250 years ago to when tea parties meant more than just tea and cookies. Protests sparked across the 13 original colonies with citizens destroying tea, setting ships ablaze, and creating formal resolutions to demonstrate their beliefs.
Meet Loyalist and Patriot citizens as well as British soldiers to get their thoughts on this year of protests. Sample the same types of tea dumped overboard, with patriot tea and some sweets treats.
Join us as we mark the anniversary of the tea parties with family-friendly crafts and activities!
Saturday, November 23, 2pm-4pm
Walkterton Tavern, 2892 Mountain Rd, Glen Allen, VA 23060
