This summer brings the Sippican Woman’s Club’s Bicentennial Celebration of Handy’s Tavern.

The Woman's Club has made the “Marion Commemorative Plate” celebrating Handy’s Tavern’s two hundred years (1812 – 2012).

Designed by Jeanne Bruen and her committee, the plate features Tabor Boy, Handy’s Tavern, The First Congregational Church of Marion, Beverly Yacht Club, Marion Town Hall, the Elizabeth Taber Library, The Music Hall, and Bird Island.

The back of the plate has the Sippican Woman’s Club logo and a short history of Handy’s Tavern.

Plates are available for purchase ($40.00 plus tax) at Serendipity by the Sea and The Book Stall, both on Front Street in Marion Village.
