Boston Tea Party
Sunday, December 16--Today
Old South Meeting House, 310 Washington, 5:30 pm

Old South Meeting House site

One lump or two? Two hundred and thirty-four years ago, Bostonians rebelled against the British by gathering at a massive protest and dumping tea into the harbor.

Re-enactors will be at the Old South Meeting House to perform the debate that led up to the tea party. You'll see John Hancock and Paul Revere reborn. But you won't see the Ron Paul blimp--the blimp couldn't make it due to the weather.

The organizers have said at their website that, despite the impending storm, the tea party is still on. If the weather gets really bad, check the Old South Meeting House web page or call 617-482-6439.
