Winter Brown Bag Lunch: A Boston Tankard

 Date: 3/17/2010
 Starting Time: 12:00:00 PM
 Ending Time: 1:00:00 PM

Join the Stanley-Whitman House this St. Patrick’s Day for a look at an important mid-18th century silver tankard, created by Boston silversmith Samuel Minott. Though it may never have held green beer, the tankard offers an opportunity for a lively look at Colonial life and the art of the silversmith. Bring your own lunch. Tea, coffee, and dessert will be served. Reservations for the program are requested, but not required.
