❖ Dec 5   Holiday Open House

Sunday, December 5, 2010
11:00 AM to 3:00 PM.

Take a step back in time and enjoy the pleasures of a homegrown small town holiday on the grounds of the New London Historical Society. You’ll encounter strolling musicians and enjoy miniconcerts throughout the day in the Transportation Building.

The Towne Crier will direct you to scheduled performances including The Lowe Sisters who will play in the School House and the Scytheville House.

• Shop at the General Store for baked goods. And restore your energy with refreshments in the Meeting House.

• Visit the hearthside cookers at the Scytheville House where you can sample their home-made creations, and marvel at the diversity of items they can cook on an open fire!

• The Holiday Craft Room will feature make-your-own “Woodland House” and a variety of other crafts, including gum-drop trees! ($1 per child fee for Craft Room.) Visit our website to see an example of a “woodland house” – but yours will be a one-of-a-kind treasure to keep or give.

• Capture a seasonal and historic image of friends and family in our decorated antique sleigh – perfect for greeting cards.

• Shop for one-of-a-kind and favorite items at the Silent Auction.

Admission: $4 members, $6 non-members.
