Friends Group sponsors Victorian Tea in April
Mark your calendars now to attend "A Victorian Tea," sponsored by the Friends of the Bluffton Public Library. The tea will be held Thursday, April 12, at 5:45 p.m. in the Richland Room of the library at 145 S. Main St., Bluffton.
Christie Weininger, director of the Wood County Historical Center and Museum, will present "The Victorian Secret: The Secret beneath the Shape." The presentation will show examples of the ladies' fashions during the 1870s and 1880s. She will demonstrate how the changing roles of women in society prompted changes in the fashions during the Victorian Era.
The program will be preceded by a light meal consisting of typical foods served during formal teas. In previous years, the following foods have been served: scones with lemon curd, Devonshire cream, strawberry preserves, finger sandwiches, fresh fruit and delicious desserts.
The evening promises to be both entertaining and educational. Tickets cost $12 and are on sale at the library. Seating is limited.
