“Enjoy an old-fashioned Christmas and celebrate the spirit of the holiday season with us–and Mr. Claus,” says Cindy Earls, Lead Homeplace Interpreter. “Make traditional Christmas decorations, taste a sample of homemade Christmas treats from The Homeplace History and Receipt Book, sing Christmas carols, listen to the Homeplace version of The Night Before Christmas, and welcome Santa Claus to the Homeplace. The Dixie Volunteers will play old-time music during the afternoon. It will be a fun afternoon for everyone!”

Be sure to bring a camera and take your photo with an old-fashioned Santa.
