Join us at the Charlotte Museum of History on April 19 for a special book talk with author Rebecca Sharpless, as she discusses her book Grain and Fire: A History of Baking in the American South from 1-2 PM. Explore the rich history of Southern baking and its deep cultural roots.

As part of the program, we will host a live cooking demonstration in the historic log kitchen, showcasing 18th-century baking techniques and traditions from this region. Guests can also take a guided tour of the 1774 Rock House at 12 PM and 2 PM to learn more about life in early North Carolina.

Everything is included in general admission prices, however if you would like to participate in the guided tour you must register beforehand. To register for the guided tour select your admission price + tour option.
