Summer of Celebration
This July, the United States of America is celebrating 250 years and the Association for the
Preservation of Tennessee Antiquities (APTA) is celebrating 75 years, and we will be bringing the party for both!
It’s going to be hot outside, but cool and refreshing in our basement where we will be serving bbq, assorted treats and specialty-crafted cocktails by Memphis’ hometown distillery, Old Dominick.
While learning about the history behind the APTA’s mission to save and restore historically significant properties throughout the state of Tennessee, guests can stroll the grounds and the mansion and be treated to a look inside the historic James Lee House where it all started!
