Take a guided tour of Yuletides past that will warm your heart and soul.
Join GCV&M for its Yuletide in the Country Tours, coming up on December 2, 3, 4, 9, 10, 11, 16, and 17.
As you explore the wintry village bedecked in holiday splendor you’ll be invited into vignettes that illuminate the link between today’s cherished holiday traditions and the cultural customs of generations that came before. Yuletide tours run from 5 – 8 p.m. on Fridays, from 2 – 8:15 p.m. on Saturdays, and from 12 – 4:30 p.m. on Sundays. And don’t forget, you can pair your festive experience with a delicious dinner or brunch! Yuletide in the Country is sponsored by Valley Propane & Fuels, Cedar Street Sales & Rentals, and NFP Technology Solutions.
Theatrical performances will represent the rich history and tradition that newcomers to the region would have shared throughout the 19th century. Highlights include a look at the Italian-American tradition of Festi dei Setti Pesci, a Hanukkah celebration, Watch Night festivities as presented by David Shakes and the North Star Players, and moments of fika and hygge with Swedish settlers. You may even encounter that jolly old elf, St. Nick!
