Lecture
“The
Colonial Tavern Experience”
The who, what, where, when, why, and how of the busiest and most
important public space in early American towns. You will learn what made
taverns such a successful business, a threat to the church and how they were strictly
regulated.
From the licensing of the tavern keeper, to the “wine, women and
song,” you are sure to leave this lunchtime lecture full of information and
maybe, even humming a colonial tune!
