The Nashua Historical Society invites the community to step back in time for a charming afternoon tea, Steeped in ’76 Tea Party: With a Splash of Red, White, and Blue, on Sunday, March 8, 2026. Inspired by the upcoming 250th anniversary of the American Revolution, this festive gathering will blend history, creativity, and celebration in a uniquely memorable way.

  • A hands-on colonial-inspired craft
  • A special raffle and other surprises

In the spirit of the celebration, attendees are encouraged to bring a friend or family member and dress in red, white, and/or blue. Doors open at 12:30 p.m., with tea service beginning promptly at 1:00 p.m.
