History Talk: Entertaining at the White House - Presidential China

History Talk: Entertaining at the White House - Presidential China

Presidents and their First Ladies often have new sets of china produced for their official entertaining, such as State Dinners. These events are an important part of diplomacy and the table setting conveys not only an atmosphere of elegance and hospitality, but also national pride. Julie Northrip, former interpretive program manager at the park, will show and discuss some of the china used during presidential administrations.

The program is free. Call 314-842-1867 ext. 230 for reservations.
