Marjorie Morrison Memorial Members' Tea

 

Marjorie Morrison Memorial Members' Tea 

Each March, since 2012, the Friends of Sims Library holds its Marjorie Morrison Memorial Members' Tea. The event is named in honor of the late Marjorie Morrison, arts patron and activist, who was instrumental in the creation and support of the Friends organization. Featuring a genial atmosphere of delightful teas, sandwiches, pastries, mimosas, and door prizes, the event also has interesting and entertaining speakers.

Past speakers have included New Orleans luminaries Poppy Tooker, John Pope, and Susan Larson, as well as authors Christine Wiltz, Christina Vella, Nigel Hamilton, Bev Marshall, David Armand, and Seth Pevey. The tea is free to members who have renewed their membership; for non-members, the price of a reservation includes a one-year membership to Friends of Sims Library.
