JOIN US FOR A COCKTAIL RECEPTION AS WE UNVEIL THE REINTERPRETATION OF MORRIS-JUMEL’S 18TH-CENTURY KITCHEN AND EXHIBITION: LIFE BELOW STAIRS.
Author & Food Historian Ramin Ganeshram will share unexpected stories of the origins of American food and foodways, and what life was like for those who served below stairs at the Morris-Jumel Mansion. We will also premiere the audio experience, Northup, by Black Gotham, about the life of Anne Northup, who cooked for Eliza Jumel.
Life Below Stairs has been generously funded by the Versailles Foundation.
