Death at the City Hotel: The Fear that Unites Us

Join Gadsby’s Tavern Museum for a fascinating evening inspired by Alexandria's “Female Stranger,” who died on October 16, 1816. Travelers like the Female Stranger encountered many dangers, including illnesses not yet understood. What did people do when medicine had no answers? Together, guests will explore how faith, protective charms, and healing traditions have helped confront a universal fear that connects us through time: death.
Ticket price includes presentation, intriguing conversations, one drink ticket, and the opportunity to create your own woven charm.
Please note this event takes place up one flight of stairs in the historic Ballroom of Gadsby's Tavern Museum.
