Historic Fallsington Day 2019 Is Oct. 12

FALLSINGTON, PA — A trip back through the history of Bucks County is coming up for folks in the fall-festival spirit.

Roadways will be closed for the event. Parking will be at Fallsington Elementary School.

Some of the Fallsington Day demonstrations include a dance performance by Rising Turtle, descendants of the Delaware Indian Nation. The group will share the culture and traditions of the indigenous people of the area, the great Lenni Lenape.

Folk singer and story teller Richard McLaughlin will take the state, the Heritage Dancers will perform colonial-era numbers and A Quaker Presence will provide hands-on Colonial children's games and quill pen writing demonstrations.

There will be period-inspired demonstrations of paper making, cooking and spinning as well.

There will be horse-drawn village hay rides, pony rides, a book sale, a bake sale and all museum buildings will be open.
