Originally built in the 1700’s on Old Post Road, it has been burned by the British, irreparably damaged by a tornado, and rebuilt at its current location in 1862. This year commemorates their 150th anniversary on Pequot Avenue. What better way to start celebrating 150 years than with an artisanal tasting? The event is open to the public and admission is $40 per person at the door. Proceeds will support Trinity’s educational programs and outreach efforts for local, national, and international charities. Trinity Episcopal Church is located at 651 Pequot Avenue in Southport.
