Join the Revolution! Celebrate Chestertown’s Colonial Heritage
May 22-24, 2015
It’s not your typical street fair! Now in its 39th year, the historic Tea Party Festival in Chestertown, MD offers an engaging glimpse into its colonial past in addition to entertainment, children’s activities, crafts, wine and beer tastings, and more. Follow the re-enactment of Colonists and Tories as they march to the Chester River and board Chestertown’s 18th century replica tall ship, Sultana, to dispatch its cargo of tea overboard. Afterwards, you can take a public sail on the Sultana itself. A Colonial Parade, walking tours of the historic district, demonstrations of colonial crafts, revolutionary theater by local playwrights, the popular “Tory Toss” into the river and a “Crazy Raft Race” all make for a fun and educational weekend. For more information and the schedule go to www.chestertownteaparty.org. If you plan on staying for the weekend go to www.kentcounty.com.
