JASNA NorCal Presents: Annual Birthday Gala Tea

December 5 @ 12:00 pm – 3:00 pm PST

Join us for a special tea to celebrate Jane Austen’s 251st birthday!

We are so excited to build off the success of last year’s gala tea with another afternoon filled with our favorite things: delicious treats, Austenish diversions, and the company of our fellow Janeites!

Ticket sales end on Friday, November 20, and there is limited availability left, so be sure to purchase your tickets ASAP!

Similar to years past, the tea will include a light luncheon (including gluten-free and vegetarian options) and a special presentation by Austen scholar Becky Richardson. We heard your feedback, so we’ve also been sure to plan more time to chat with your fellow JASNA NorCal members this year. As always, expect some other fun surprises!
