Location: Fraunces Tavern® Museum

Come in and warm up from the cold with a Colonial style mulled wine as we discuss and celebrate the sequential art (comic book) of George Washington.
Join author Renee Witterstaetter* as she presents on her book, Cloaked Crusader: George Washington in Comics and Pop Culture, looking at the visage of Washington in everything from tavern signs to comic books to movies, over the past 250 years.
This lively presentation will be preceded by a wine tasting with offerings from Brotherhood Winery out of Washingtonville, New York, fittingly enough.
To round out the evening, we will also have caricature artist Edward Murr on hand to make you an art creation yourself.
Don’t miss this entertaining evening with Renee and Ed, where the “Oldest Winery in the US” is featured at the oldest building in Manhattan and raise a glass to Washington in Comics and Pop Culture for the nation’s 250th!
