Wear your green and join us for a "cupan tae" (cup of tea) in the beautiful parlors of historic Edwards Place on March 5, from 2 to 3:30! The Tea Ladies will be on hand with a presentation that celebrates the history and culture of Irish immigrants during the Victorian era. Enjoy the stories of the brave men and women who crossed the ocean to start new lives in a new country, and learn about domestic service in the 19th century from an "Irish maid"!
Guests will be served delicious sandwiches and sweet treats from Cafe Moxo, as well as the ever-popular PG Tips tea - the Queen's favorite! An event not to be missed!
Tickets are $25 and can be reserved by calling 217-523-2631 or emailing collections@springfieldart.org. Deadline to reserve is February 28.
