BRITSBURGH FESTIVAL – A Right Royal Afternoon Tea (Wear your Hat!)
September 2 @ 2:30 pm - 5:00 pm
$55 – $75Britsburgh is 10! The Festival traditionally starts HERE at Mansions of Fifth on Labor Day with an Afternoon Tea, as is our tradition !
Mansions on Fifth is one of the few remaining industrialist estates on Shadyside’s legendary Millionaire’s Row! After dainty sandwiches, HOME MADE SCONES (new this year!) and a cup of tea, we will explore Pittsburgh’s connections to Benjamin Henry Latrobe. Britsburgh Board member Kim Szczypinski will give a talk about Latrobe, a renowned 18th-19th Anglo-American neoclassical architect. We’ll also enjoy some special birthday cake as Britsburgh celebrates its 10th anniversary!
