A perfect evening for history lovers, mixologists, museum-goers, and anyone in need of a midweek break!

Unwind after a long workday with stunning views of the James River at Wine Down Wednesday!

Please join us on the last Wednesday of June, July, and August and explore the history of cocktail making in the Civil War era with hand-curated cocktails using recipes from the first printed bartender's manual, How to Mix Drinks: Or, the Bon-Vivant's Companion by the great-great grandfather of modern American mixology, Jerry Thomas.

The evening will include light refreshments and great company inside the American Civil War Museum at Tredegar. Exhibits will be open during this event.

Open to all, though alcoholic beverages sold only to 21+


$10 / $5 for Members
