Quaint Victorian Holiday—featuring Lyric Theatre Victorian Carolers

Festivities

Catch the charm of the season and the uplifting voices of Lyric Theatre Victorian Carolers at the beautifully decorated museum home.

Meet costumed docents offering historical commentary and tours, make authentic Victorian-inspired crafts and keepsakes as you learn about the homemade decorating traditions of the era (open to all ages), and enjoy light refreshments and other special programming in this unique setting.

Should you wish to do so, guests are welcome to join us in Victorian (or Edwardian-inspired) garb. Please note that hoop skirts are not recommended due to interior space constraints.

Feel free to join us as you are, and stay tuned as we expand our program.

All are welcome!
