Alisa Dupuy from "Ladies of History" is back to perform a lively program about Christmas traditions!
Join us as we meet Eliza Blackwell Dupree, a lady of the 19 century who will regale us with stories of Victorian Christmas traditions, and why we celebrate Christmas the way we do. Come prepared to sing a few Christmas carols, and she will reveal the secrets under those bustle gowns.
The Ladies of History is a labor of love that grew out of a desire to study history, wear the fashions of different eras and bring history to life in a lively and fun way. History doesn’t have to be boring! Owner Alisa Dupuy began the business in 2006. It was called Historical Teas and her main clients at the time were Tea Rooms. Since then, however, Alisa has branched out and her list of clients has grown to include historical societies, libraries, bed and breakfasts, book clubs, social clubs, church fundraisers and schools.
