It's Tea Time @ the West Chicago Public Library District
Submitted by Shelley Campbell on Wed, 05/08/2013 - 5:29pmThe West Chicago Public Library District is preparing for two special programming events featuring Tea @ the Library. On Saturday, May 11, the Library will host its 11th annual Mother & Daughter Tea in honor of Mother’s Day from 1:00 to 3:00 pm. This year’s theme will feature an elegant Victorian Tea party, and all are encouraged to come dressed in beautiful dresses to learn about proper etiquette, make a Victorian fan and learn the language of the fan. Mothers, daughters, grandmothers, and aunts, along with girls ages 5 and up, are invited to join this marvelous, time-honored tradition in celebration of Mother’s Day!
Downton Abbey fans won’t want to miss our Downton Abbey Afternoon Tea & Lecture on Saturday, May 18 from 2:00 to 4:00 pm. This event will feature an authentic English afternoon tea as well as a lecture by renowned landscape historian, Barbara Geiger, who will discuss the rise and fall of wealthy English aristocratic families and why grand estates like Downton Abbey, the real-life Highclere Castle, look the way they do.
“We are so very thrilled to be able to offer our patrons this unusual opportunity to enjoy a high tea experience,” says Administrative Librarian Melody E. Coleman. “This type of programming provides for unique kinds of community engagement and introduces young people to an experience they might not otherwise enjoy.”
Both the Mother/Daughter Victorian Tea and the Downton Abbey Afternoon Tea & Lecture are free to the public, but registration is a must as space is limited. Make your reservation today online at www.westchicago.lib.il.us, or by calling the Library at (630) 231-1552.
