Christmases Past: A Nostalgic Look Back

Rediscover the magic of holidays gone by. Explore how the holidays have evolved from the time President Franklin Pierce introduced the first White House Christmas tree in 1853, to the glittering trees and cherished ornaments we know today.

Learn of the transformation from real candles to electric lights, handmade decorations, and the charming glittered cardboard candy boxes shaped like little

houses.

With local author and storyteller John Cilio.
