Saturday Special: Delft Tiles
July 29 @ 1:00 pm - 3:00 pm

Create your own Delft tile at Senate House! Delft was a city in the Netherlands which began creating tiles in the 1600s. This type of tiling was intended to imitate Chinese porcelain and as a result, became a major industry for the region. Delft would be shipped to the Americas as it was becoming a popular form of decoration, particularly in the Hudson Valley in the 17th and 18th Centuries.
