Her most gracious royal majesty Queen Charlotte, wife to King George III, is coming to Charleston (although she calls it Charles Town)!
The Queen has heard much of the distant colony of Carolina and is anxious to see this strange land and meet with its nobility. All young nobles, Princes and Princesses alike, are invited to visit with her at The Powder Magazine at 79 Cumberland Street on December 5, 2015. Feel free to come in modern dress, or wear your finest regal attire to meet the Queen!
Her majesty will be on hand from 1 pm- 4 pm to meet with Carolina’s finest families, take pictures and explain the tradition of Christmas trees which she introduced to the English Court. In honor of her visit, attendees are also invited to make paper-ornaments to either take back to their castle or to hang on the tree at The Powder Magazine.
Tickets for this event are included with the regular admission to the Powder Magazine. Children dressed as Princes or Princesses will be granted free admission.
