Another delightful seasonal experience in Downtown Boston!
Join us for a festive evening of tea, history, and community at the historic Old South Meeting House! This holiday teatime invites Board members, staff, and members of the Revolutionary Spaces community to gather in celebration of the season with warm drinks, sweet and savory tea-time snacks, and lively conversation. Enjoy festive music by Safari & the Beat Explorers to set the mood, along with specialty tea cocktails to toast the holiday spirit.
As we come together to embrace the warmth of the season, immerse yourself in the rich traditions of holidays past. Our President Nat Sheidley and Director of Interpretation and Education Matthew Wilding will share festive stories and insights about holiday customs, connecting them to the history of Boston and the legacy of the Old State House and Old South Meeting House. Board member and acclaimed poet Charles Coe will share heartfelt seasonal poems, reflecting on the warmth of family, the joy of community, and cherished holiday memories.
This program sets the stage for the annual Boston Tea Party Reenactment the following week (Monday, December 16th), offering appreciation for the spirit of community and resilience that has defined Boston’s history.
This free event is made possible through the generous support of the Lowell Institute and is open to everyone. We would love to see you and celebrate the season in one of Boston’s most iconic spaces!
