Tea on the Loose

On Tuesday the 19th we have a great event planned to celebrate January as Hot Tea Month.

We’re having a program called Tea on the Loose from 1-3 pm in the Cooper Room. Harsha Mistry, Mango Tree Coffee owner, will be the guest speaker telling us about the history of tea, the different teas available, how to brew them and differences found around the world. After her presentation everyone will be invited to sample teas from the Mango Tree Coffee shop accompanied by cookies and tea sandwiches.

In order to know how many goodies to make, we’re asking that you register for this event by calling 692-9407 or signing the registration sheet the next time you’re in the library.
