SUMMARY:Virtual Lecture – Exotic Imports & Elegant Dining: Annapolis in Its Golden Age (1763–1774)
DESCRIPTION:Step into the world of colonial luxury with food historian Joyce White in this engaging lecture exploring the remarkable imported foods that defined status and refinement in Annapolis during the 1700s. \nThis convergence of wealth and robust trade\, particularly during the city’s Golden Age\, allowed the wealthiest residents access to an extraordinary array of global delicacies—spices\, sugars\, teas\, coffees\, chocolate\, fine wines\, spirits\, cheeses\, and more—each reflecting far-reaching trade networks and cultural exchange. \nDiscover how these coveted ingredients shaped fashionable dining and learn about Maryland’s skilled culinary artisans—many of them enslaved people—whose expertise transformed imported luxuries into elegant meals. \nThe lecture concludes with a fascinating look at festive traditions documented in Maryland during this vibrant and prosperous era. \nJoin us for a richly illustrated journey into the tastes\, tables\, and traditions of colonial Annapolis. \nThe Historic Annapolis Virtual Lecture Series is offered free of charge thanks to the generosity of an anonymous donor. If you enjoy this program\, we hope you will consider becoming a member or making a donation today to support Historic Annapolis and our mission to connect all people with our shared history.  \nCan’t watch live?
