Home for the holidays!

Our volunteers turned the House into a festive home for the holidays! Our two open houses went very well; we saw almost 200 people in the two days!

There is still time left to stop by and view the decorations and learn more about the holiday! Our open hours are Tuesdays 1-3 and Fridays 10-Noon, and will continue until the college closes for break.





Open for the holidays!

The Hays-Heighe House is getting in the holiday spirit! Some of our volunteers helped out with a great decorating session and the House is starting to look festive.

Be sure to stop by on Tuesday, Dec. 7th from Noon to 6 p.m. for our Holiday Open House. We will have colonial music playing, light refreshments, and plenty of holiday cheer. Learn about the history of Christmas in America and the origins of modern traditions and celebrations.

Hope to see you there!
