Thursday, December 19, 2019 @ 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm

Do you know the link between Queen Victoria and Christmas trees, or that the Civil War shaped our idea of Santa Claus? Learn how modern Christmas traditions are rooted in the 19th century with songs, images, and decor. Presented by Traci Manning, MVHS Curator of Education.
