February 6th - Michie Tavern - Dolley Madison: Empowered First Lady of the Early Republic
Dolley Madison, our nation's first First Lady, was everything she appeared to be: well-educated, extremely caring and gracious, and extremely devoted to her husband, the principal framer of the U.S. Constitution, James Madison. But was her life always so perfect?
The lectures begin at 10:30 a.m., followed by a question-and-answer period at 11:15, with lunch at 11:30. The $30 fee for each event includes the lecture, lunch with the speaker, and a book signing.
