About the event
It's a special evening for those who love cocktails and love history! Join local historians and authors Diane Lapis and Anne Peck-Davis as they share fascinating historical vignettes and vintage postcard of lounges, hotel bars and other exotic drinking venues from the 1930s, 40s and 50s. Sample two classic cocktails and enjoy a light assortment of finger foods and charcuterie at the historic Mesier Homestead. Non-alcoholic beverage will be available for those who do not imbibe, but who still enjoy the distinct glamour of the cocktail scene of that era. Last year's event sold out quickly - this year's program will feature a new focus and new cocktail samples to go along with the theme. Don't miss out on this fun, unique look at history!
All attendees will receive 10% off their purchase at the Mesier Homestead gift shop that evening.
