Celebrate 12th Night @ General David Humphrey House

Annual "Twelfth Night Celebration" scheduled for January 8, 2017

Mark your calendars and plan to join the Derby Historical Society to mark the end of the Christmas season with its annual “Twelfth Night Celebration” at the David Humphreys House. This event features tours of their 17th century house by costumed docents. You’ll take a trip back to an earlier time in American history.

Try mulled cider and punch alongside the lovely buffet. Partake in samples of some items which would have been served in this house during the American Revolution. There will also be modern-day samples to enjoy.
Colonial skills such as spinning and weaving and an open hearth cooking demonstration will take place. This year they will have a Dickens Reading at 3 pm. Before you leave, be sure to visit their Gift Shop, that will be open during this event.

For more information call 203 735 1908 or visit our website www.derbyhistorical.org. Limited parking is available in back of the house. Additional parking is available on nearby Thomas Street.
