A Santa Visit You'll Never Forget...


Let's face it, many of us have fond memories of visiting Santa when we were kids, but not all of us like the commercial atmosphere involved in re-creating the experience for our children.
But at the Museum on Saturday, children can visit with Santa – in his 1880s incarnation, Father Christmas. You can have your picture taken with the Victorian-era icon who was the period's Santa Father when homesteaders were celebrating the holidays on the frontier.
With his flowing emerald robe and white beard, this Santa visit will be remembered forever. Tell him what you want this holiday season, write your name in icing on gingerbread, and take home a photo!
All proceeds benefit the nonprofit Museum's educational programs.
$10 plus admission. Members, $5. 11 a.m. – 2 p.m. With 1880s music live from the Thorn Hollow String Band: live mandolin, banjo, fiddle, guitar and vocals. 12 p.m. – 3 p.m.!
