A Victorian Christmas at the Willows
12/18/2021 @ 12:00 PM - 4:00 PM
This Christmas we are putting on an event at the Homestead entitled; A Victorian Christmas at the Willows. This event will immerse the participants in a traditional Christmas as Adelaide and her family would have celebrated in the 1860s. The historic house will be decorated for Christmas, including a christmas tree, garlands, and greenery. We will make the house smell and sound like Christmas by having a simmering pot of potpourri on the stove and Christmas songs playing in the house.
The event will be set up as various stations depicting aspects of Victorian Christmas throughout the Homestead. The topics include; Christmas Dinner with tasting elements, listening to a reading of A Christmas Carol, an ornament decorating craft, Victorian parlour games, and decorating their own gingerbread cookies.
Book your 30 minute time slot on Eventbrite (https://www.eventbrite.ca/e/a-victorian-christmas-at-the-willows-tickets-205150058347) and the admission price will be by donation on site. It will take place Saturday, December 18th 2021 from 12pm to 4pm.
