Dear fellow Hanoverians:
This June, come to the library to celebrate Pam Golden’s new book,
Victorian Cat Tales, Book One: The Life and Times of Rose and Leopold!
The Friends of the John Curtis Free Library are very happy to announce
a Victorian Tea for Three (adult, child, stuffed animal) on Saturday,
June 1, from 2:00 – 4:00 p.m. at the library.
Pam Golden, a local artist/educator, has led many afternoon clay
classes at the library for children. Pam’s clay sculptures illustrate
the book which is written by her sister, Catherine Golden. It features
the friendship between two cats – Rose and Leopold. The cat’s lives
intersect with the history of Queen Victoria, Price Albert, and
Buckingham Palace. To celebrate the publication of this book, Pam will
read the story while Donna and Ron Lasko (often seen at the Windsor
Tea House in Cohasset) will talk about Victorian tea traditions,
display some of their collections (cards, fans, and more), offer their
own gourmet blend of black tea with ginger, and offer one lucky
participant a beautiful tea-related door prize. The children will also
have the chance to make their own Victorian souvenirs to bring home
and enjoy. Pam’s book will be on sale for purchase after the tea.
This is truly a charming, interesting, and fun way to spend an
afternoon. Children are asked to bring a special stuffed animal.
Please join us and bring your favorite tea cup for service (please
also bring a tea cup for the child and animal). Pastries and fruit
will also be served. This event is recommended for children ages 6 and
up. Tickets are $5 each. You may purchase tickets at the library
circulation desk downstairs now. Tickets are limited to 40, so plan to
buy early. Please contact Tracy Marchetti for more information
(tjmarchetti@verizon.net
).
