Spiders and leeches and flies- OH MY!
Victorians used animals in their medicinal practices. Explore the gardens at night and learn about using venom, leeching, and blistering.
We’re unlocking the gates to Heritage House for another after dark event! Crawl on over to the gardens of Heritage House to learn about the creepy-crawly side of Victorian medicine. Bloodletting, maggot therapy, and the use of venom were all practices in the Victorian era. Talk to our entomologist about spiders, meet leeches, and participate in a themed activity. Free and family-friendly.
