About the Event
Saturday September 19th | 6:30pm - 8:00pm | Community Series | Pay What You Wish | Virtual & In-person
Join Anna for an evening spilling the tea on history — exploring the society and politics of Colonial New England, and the fear, power, and paranoia that fueled the Connecticut Witch Trials. As a feminist witch and historian, Anna is especially drawn to the ways these trials reveal what happens when women's power — real or perceived — collides with fear. Guests will enjoy tea while Anna leads the talk, followed by an informal Q&A where attendees are welcome to bring their own questions and reflections.
An option to attend via Zoom is available. Please select the virtual option while checking out and you will be emailed a link prior to the event.
