Great Barrington — The Great Barrington Historical Society’s annual Old Fashioned Christmas exhibit will be on display at their museum until Sunday, January 5. The exhibit includes antiques, artifacts, and toys tracing the history of the Christmas holidays from the Colonial period, Victorian era, way into the 1950s.
Historical Society Executive Director Robert Krol said that the exhibit has been a popular draw for the past six years. “We have always had a lot of people come back to view this exhibit,” Krol said. “What I hear the most from visitors is that they all come here every year to get a start on the Christmas spirit. Every year, we include new items. This exhibit is constantly growing, and we are always looking for new additions in every room.”
Admission to the museum is free. Located at 817 South Main Street in Great Barrington, the museum is open on Fridays, from 4 to 8 p.m.; Saturdays, 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.; and Sundays, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. For more information, visit the Historical Society’s website.
