Join us to travel back in time for a Charles Dickens holiday tea party with guest speaker Emma Rose. Learn about the history of Victorian afternoon tea, proper tea etiquette and enjoy a variety of hot teas and scones.
Emma Rose’s Irish heritage influenced her love for tea and culture—her first afternoon tea experience was at age three at the Ritz Carlton. Her passion for afternoon tea never ceased and she has continued to host tea parties for friends and at retirement communities—she collects vintage dresses, period costumes and dresses up every chance she gets. Emma holds a degree in Tourism and Hospitality Management and has managed hotels and inns across the country.
