Historical Society to Present 'Little Dolls, A Little Tea'

The is accepting reservations for the 8th annual “,” a Moravian and Victorian tea party.

The elegant formal tea party for young girls, their friends and their dolls will be held on Saturday, Feb. 18. Mothers, grandmothers or other special adults are also invited to attend.

“It is very exciting to share Nazareth’s history with children,” said Megan van Ravenswaay, director of the historical society. “Nazareth is rich with history and we love incorporating the events of the past with education and fun."

Along with hot tea and other beverages, guests will enjoy Moravian and Victorian-style savories and sweets in an authentic Victorian parlor.

The little ladies will be served by hosts in period dress and will receive a behind-the-scenes look at a historical doll collection. They will also make event-inspired crafts and receive teacups to take home.

Adults accompanying the girls may support the Moravian Historical Society by participating in a raffle. Some of the raffle items will include: an American Girl doll, gift certificates and services donated by local businesses, doll accessories and more.

All proceeds will support the historical society’s efforts to preserve and share history.

Recommended age is 5 and up. Other ages are welcome based on  parents' discretion.
