Events
Over 100 years ago, ladies held "At Home" events in their homes - a kind of open house for their guests to come and go as they pleased. Their invitations stated that "Mrs. Jones... will be "at home" on date.... and that anyone wanting to be received or visit her could come on that date. This has been the inspiration for the following "At Homes"
