As the United States approaches the 250th anniversary of American independence, join us for June’s Coffee with the Curator sponsored by Tinker Coffee and Leviathan Bakehouse, exploring William Henry Harrison and the Indiana Territory, a story rooted in the nation’s earliest years of growth and governance.

Before becoming the ninth president, William Henry Harrison served as governor of the Indiana Territory, guiding a vast frontier at a moment when the young republic was still defining its identity. His leadership reveals how territorial expansion, political authority, and national ambition shaped the United States in the decades following the Revolution.

We promise to satisfy your curiosity (and your need for caffeine) and have you on your way to the office by 9 AM sharp!

This event is just $6 general admission and free for members. Space is limited so reservations are recommended.
