Agecroft Hall and Gardens will host its annual Yuletides open house Sunday, Dec. 8, from noon to 5 p.m. The free, family-friendly event will feature historic re-enactors showcasing holiday traditions from 17th century England, 19th-century London, and 20th century Richmond.

Guests can make holiday crafts, enjoy live music and entertainment, and visit with Father Christmas. The Tudor-era museum will offer abbreviated self-guided tours of rooms decorated with holiday styles from the 1600s to the 1940s. The event also will include a sweets shop and gift shop selling locally made baked goods, books, jewelry, toys, and more.

“Every year we get such a wonderful mix of visitors to this unique holiday event,” said Anne Kenny-Urban, executive director of Agecroft Hall and Gardens. “I love seeing visitors of all ages interacting with our historical interpreters and sipping hot apple cider as they stroll the grounds. If you’re not in the holiday spirit when you arrive, you will certainly be so by the time you leave.”

The event will take place rain or shine. Gates open at noon, and registration is welcome but not required. Agecroft Hall, located at 4305 Sulgrave Road, is a 23-acre estate featuring a Tudor house originally built around 1500 in England and moved to Richmond in 1925. The museum is open to the public six days a week. For more information, visit agecrofthall.org.
