Children will be able to create their own candy-covered gingerbread houses for $5 each from 9:30 am—4:00 pm. And the whole family will enjoy the traditional Victorian Tea, complete with petite sandwiches and a variety of sweets, from 12:00—3:30 pm. The price is $12 for members, $15 for non-members and $6 for children under 12. In addition, unique New Canaan gifts will be for sale.
Americans at Play, a continuing costume exhibit, will also be open. The exhibit features the way people spent their leisure time in the late 1800s and early 1900s and the apparel they wore.
