Stop by the Senate House grounds on Friday, September 5, from 2:00pm-4:00pm, to enjoy a sip of tea!
Tea was introduced to Britain in the early 1700's and quickly gained popularity in Britain and their colonies. Tea had become such a staple in colonial homes that once the Tea Act of 1773 ended up becoming one of the contributing factors leading up to American Revolutionary War. Site staff will host a table outside on our grounds with some free samples that visitors can enjoy and learn the history surrounding tea.
This family friendly drop-in activity is free and weather dependent.
