About this Event

The Norwalk Historical Society presents a special Valentine’s Day program, The Courtship of George Washington and Martha Custis, on Saturday, February 14, 2026, at 2:00 pm at Mill Hill Historic Park, 2 East Wall Street, Norwalk, CT. Snow Date: Sunday, February 15, 2026 at 2:00 pm.

Historical interpreters Michael and Maria Grillo will bring to life the romance of our country’s first “First Couple,” sharing the story of George and Martha’s courtship while offering fascinating insight into 18th-century courting customs among America’s upper classes. As Michael notes, “bringing characters out of the pages of history and breathing life into them” helps audiences better understand historical events by allowing them to “see, touch, or feel the past.”

Guests will enjoy tea and light snacks as they step back in time for this engaging and romantic afternoon.

Tickets: Purchase Online Only: $12.51
