High Tea and Hemlock (Ages 18+) In-Person
Poison has long brewed beneath the surface of great literature—and now it’s steeping in your teacup.
Join us for a wickedly refined morning where tea is served with a side of suspense. Louisiana State University PhD candidate Amber Jurgensen will guide guests through the sinister world of poison in classic and contemporary literature, exploring how deadly substances have shaped stories in print.
Enjoy a tasty spread of teas and treats while uncovering the chilling role of toxins in tales of mystery, betrayal, and revenge.
An event for adults who enjoy their tea a little twisted. Over-the-top outfits and wonderful hats are never amiss at a tea party, so dress your best and come prepared to tremble at the thought of what might be in your cup.
Take heart! Nothing in your teacup will harm you... but the tales might haunt you. Registration is Required. For ages 18+.
