“Sail Away” while learning the history of the Annapolis area

September 11, 2017 @ 4:30 pm - 6:30 pm

History Cruise: Eating, Drinking and Making Merry in Colonial Annapolis with Diane Rey. Set sail with Anne Catharine Green, Annapolis’ 18th century Printer to the Province, a woman far ahead of her time; to discover the kinds of activities that helped make Annapolis the “Athens of America” during its golden age. Learn about early tavern life, sought-after imports, the “clubbical behavior” of the celebrated Tuesday Club, and the whirlwind that was Annapolis’ social season, as drawn from the pages of Mrs. Green’s newspaper, the Maryland Gazette. Enjoy your craft beer while hearing about the strange concoctions that Colonials quaffed!
Cruises depart from the Annapolis Waterfront Hotel at 5:30pm and return at 7:30pm. Tickets are $46/adult, $29/child under 12 yrs. and include a soft drink and snack. http://www.schoonerwoodwind.com 410-263-7837
