From the first "American" Christmas celebration held by English colonists still sailing towards the new land in 1606 to a look at the average traditions of a 1780's Virginia farmer, A Colonial Christmas is an interesting look into America's history with the holidays.
Jamestown Settlement and the
Yorktown Victory Center will both present various exhibits on this interesting topic. This Winter experience where the American Christmas all began with A Colonial Christmas.
Yorktown will sponsor a lighted boat parade and tree lighting on December 1, so don't miss out on the chance to be a part of this festive annual event!
