LIVING HISTORY IN HAMPTON TOWNSHIP
with the peaceful atmosphere of an old-fashioned country ice cream social. Traditionally, the social was an opportunity to relax the social code and visit with friends and neighbors. Ice cream, birthday cake and lemonade were complimentary with paid admission to the museum. Attendees took a trip back to colonial times for a day of treats, special demonstrations and lots of hands-on activities!
The“ Fleece to Shawl” demonstration, presented in collaboration with the Butler Spinners and Weavers Guild, and a family-friendly concert presented by the Pittsburgh Historical Music Society and the
Wayward Companions were additional highlights of the day.
