During this month’s Tavern Talks “episode” of Law and Order: Colonial Intent on Thursday, April 12th from 7-9 pm, we will explore the ways in which laws were enforced (or not) during the Colonial period. Guests will get to participate in a mock courtroom scene, learn about counterfeiting and Colonial money, explore peculiar punishments administered for crimes and more! Just be warned: guests caught “breaking the law” may be subjected to public ridicule.

Tavern Talks is a monthly experience (not a lecture!) aimed exclusively for adults 21 and older that focuses on unexplored aspects of early American history and culture. Guests will experience history with hands-on activities, food and drink tastings, demonstrations, and more. Tavern Talks takes place at the Chadds Ford Historical Society’s Barns Brinton House, an historic 1714 tavern, located next to the Chaddsford Winery at 630 Baltimore Pike. Admission is $20 for non-members and $15 for members. Tickets must be purchased in advance over the phone, in person or online as space is limited. All attendees must be 21 and older.

Additional 2018 Tavern Talks include:
May 17 - To Market, To Market
June 21 - Enlightened!
September 13 - Liberty or Death
October 11 - Fermented and Tormented
November 8 - Sugar and Spice
