Come join the Dirty Blue Shirts, a living history group, as they lead visitors in games from the federal era (1790-1810) such as battledore & shuttlecock and the graceful game of graces. Should the weather prove threatening or the mood more delicate than athletic, materials and encouragement in the creative art of schoolgirl or sampler embroidery may ensue indoors. The Dirty Blue Shirts will provide context on the Norwichtown Green of the Revolutionary & Federal eras.
Admission is $5 for adults, free for children under 15 and free for NHS Members. Please note the schoolhouse is cashless and can only accept credit or debit card payments.
