Curator Beth Wemigwase will give a History Talk exploring the history of the Shay Hexagon House as a longtime tearoom and a little about the history of Valentine's Day. 

Inside the historic Shay Hexagon House, the Cotton Bale Tea Room operated in the lower level for 27 years, beginning around 1932. In 1959, the space changed ownership and reopened with a new name, the Hexagon Tea Room. Now, for the first time in over 60 years, you can experience the Shay House's tea room for yourself! 

During the talk, you will enjoy a sampling of handmade teas from local company Jordan’s Teas, along with fresh scones and other baked treats.
