To celebrate the country's 250th anniversary, the library is hosting a series titled America250PA focusing on history. Join us as Susan McLellan Plaisted of Heart to Hearth Cookery will present her program, "18th Century Tea," in time for the anniversary of the Boston Tea Party on December 16, 1773. The importance of tea, its origins, equipage, and etiquette are explained with the use of both original and reproduction tea equipment. She will have her collection of tea equipage on display.

This program fulfills the Civic and Social Literacy for PaLA's PA Forward Gold Star program. There will be no salespeople present, no forms to complete, and the presenter will not receive a list of program attendees.
