Guy Fawkes Day is a national holiday in The United Kingdom that commemorates the foiling of a plot to blow up the houses of Parliament in London. On the 5th of November at 4 pm in the Tiered Classroom in the Library (CCLIR 205), the Global Leaders Community will be hosting a celebration of Guy Fawkes day. There will be served biscuits and afternoon tea: English tea, Chinese tea, and Turkish tea. We’ll have a 30 minute presentation about the history of Guy Fawkes day and then 15 minutes for questions.
