"Don't Know Much About History'  

Clematis by Night

Come have some authentic fun at Clematis by Night!  On September 22, 2011, rollback the clock and learn how to preserve the past.

There will be old-fashioned games on the lawn, traditional arts demonstrations including how to create stained glass, restore your home, and much more!  Come out and see re-enactors, read historical books and listen to speakers.  Architectural tours, trolleys to the restored courthouse, and a visit to the Museum are some of the other many FREE activities available for all ages.
