An Object - A Story: Spring Soirée High Tea

High Tea - Hawkesbury River

A special 'hands on history' Spring soirée with high tea.

Enjoy Sunday afternoon in the company of like minds to travel into the past via the mystery and history of objects. Pick an object and dive into the bizarre and fascinating histories of river life and maritime exploits amidst daily life on the Lower Hawkesbury. Hearth, home, and living off the land.

Discover the stories behind strange and fantastical artefacts collected from river journeys, found at abandoned sites and made from local materials. Meet your "historyteller" and be enchanted by a juicy story or two from the past.

Vintage high tea with an 'eat your history' flavour and an exclusive tea menu.
