Tickets are available now online at NewportHistory.org.
Find your way to the Speakeasy at the Colony House for an evening of 1920’s style entertainment, drinks and food, and a few surprises! Featuring soprano jazz vocalist Elise M. Roth, and costumed interpreters who will perform period dancing. Come dressed in your festive attire and use the password to enter through the secret doorway!
This event is sponsored by the Litchfield Distillery. We call ourselves Batchers in honor of the early farmers of Northwest Connecticut, a region that became known for its ample yield of wheat, corn and barley. Coaxing these crops from the rocky terrain took a certain type of grit and determination.
Today, we take the best our local farmers have to offer and distill fine craft spirits, one batch at a time. They do the growing. We do the batching. And you get a little share in this luscious little section of Connecticut called Litchfield County. Come taste The Spirit of Hard Work®.
