A lecture by Richard Tellström: "The Christmas Julbord – Swedish Christmas food heritage in both USA and Sweden”
In this lecture, Richard Tellström explores both the Swedish Christmas table from the 1800s and the Christmas food traditions the immigrants took with them to the U.S.
Which of these traditions are still living among the Swedish-Americans today? We will look at the purpose behind the Swedish Christmas table and how it developed during the 1900s - how traditions and family memories shape our Christmas Eve.
Soup with rolls served at 6:30 p.m. / lecture at 7 p.m.
Cost $10.
