About the event

Living History: Tea with Abigail Adams (tickets required)
You are cordially invited to experience Abigail Adams anew at The Philosopher's House. Join us for an elegant tea event that blends rich history with powerful storytelling!

Like other women of the time, Abigail lacked formal education; but her curiosity spurred her keen intelligence, and she read avidly the books at hand. Reading created a bond between her and young John Adams, Harvard graduate launched on a career in law, and they were married in 1764. It was a marriage of the mind and of the heart, enduring for more than half a century, enriched by time…
