The 1920s are back in a big way. Join the friends, board and staff of the Lee-Fendall House Museum in their historic garden for "Sips & Secrets: A Speakeasy Night." Sips & Secrets honors Lee-Fendall House's Prohibition-era history, when it was home to one of Alexandria's liquor wholesalers (and possible bootleggers!). It features lots of speakeasy surprises, including dancing to live jazz and ragtime and a costume contest for the best flapper or mobster style, 1920s-style cocktails and more. This year, the event will raise funds for the repair of a 220-year-old brick garden wall, of which a 70-foot section collapsed last year, while also supporting the museum's ongoing work in historic preservation, education and community engagement. A private VIP pre-reception will precede the main event.
