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 while they last. Join us at historic Walkerton Tavern as we mark the anniversary of the tea parties with family-friendly crafts and activities. Information: den63@henrico.gov
