Description

Learn how the Christmas holiday was experienced by the many different people and families living and working at Oak View through its long history, from its days as a plantation to a system of farm management, sharecropping and tenant farming. Tours will be led through six holiday displays that feature decorations from the Antebellum Era to World War II. The recommended age range for this tour is upper elementary and older. The tour is free, but registration is required for all participants.
We will run the program rain or shine, so please come prepared with weather appropriate clothing. The tour includes standing and walking between buildings on brick paths, and navigating stairs in historic buildings. Please inform park staff if you or anyone in your group requires ADA accommodations. Due to ongoing construction, the tour will meet in the park's Main House.
