  • 250 Years of Celebrations | Old World Holidays: Celebrations in the New World

    Nathan Hale Homestead 2299 South St, Coventry, CT, United States

    As the nights grow longer, bring some light to a November day with an exploration of winter traditions with roots in Europe, including Guy Fawkes Day, Mumming and wassailing, and days of Thanksgiving. As the United States marks 250 years since its founding, the Nathan Hale Homestead is asking, how can we party like it’s 1776? Our 18th-Century Celebrations series brings history to life with three immersive events.

    $25 – $30

  • Mid-Century Christmas with the Ishams, Feat. Selections from “A Charlie Brown Christmas”

    Isham-Terry House 211 High Street, Hartford, CT, United States

    This holiday season, we will celebrate as we imagine Julia and Charlotte Isham would have in the 1950s and 60s as the Isham-Terry House is transformed into a mid-century delight! Enjoy colored trees, tons of tinsel, and starbursts galore during special tours of the house. Enjoy Vince Guaraldi’s holiday classics from A Charlie Brown Christmas, featuring the Andrew Wilcox Trio. Children’s activities during the performance will help little ones get into the groove. Tours at 1 & 3 pm; performance at 2 pm.
