A Perfect Spot of Tea
We invite guests to partake in this colonial tradition once again at Porter-Phelps-Huntington Museum’s “A PERFECT SPOT OF TEA.” The summer series will run every Saturday from July 2 through August 27, 2011. Visitors are invited to drink Earl Grey tea and enjoy live music on the Museum’s back veranda. Restaurants, grocery stores, musicians and volunteers generously provide the tea, pastries, flowers, music and service for this event. Admission is $10 per person. There are seatings at 2:30 p.m. and 3:30 p.m. Tours of the Porter-Phelps-Huntington Museum are available for an additional fee.
