Event Details

Join the Historic Crab Orchard Museum as they celebrate the beginning of the Christmas season in true pioneer fashion! On Friday, Dec. 2, the Museum Center and Pioneer Park will be full of holiday cheer and ringing with music and song from 6 to 9 p.m.!

There will be hot apple cider and delicious homemade cookies, costumed interpreters and demonstrators, a Christmas craft in the Red Barn, and even a visit from Santa Claus himself! You can finish up your holiday shopping (or maybe just get started) with discounts in the Museum Gift Shop. Local authors will be on site to sign books and visit with guests. Be sure to come by and see them! There’s so much to see and do at the Museum – you won’t want to miss it!

Admission is FREE with a canned food donation to benefit A Child Shall Lead Them Food Pantry.

And check out the Tazewell County tourism blog for a little history and more information about Christmas on the frontier!
