Colonial Market Fair and Militia Muster

Craft demonstrations • Hearth cooking demos • Militia drills

Travel back in time to the American Revolution at the historic Colonel Paul Wentworth House. The sights and sounds of the Revolutionary era will come to life at a colonial market fair with 18th century craftspeople at work, while the militia musters in preparation for joining General Washington’s forces against the British.

SATURDAY: Saturday October 17: 10:00–4:00
SUNDAY: October 18: 10:00–3:00
COST: $5; Free for members

At the market fair, artisans in colonial dress will demonstrate period crafts such as joinery, wood carving, smithing, basket weaving, shoemaking, spinning, millinery, and hearth cooking. We are excited to welcome Native American interpreters, this year, and there will be a focus on fall foodways and preparations for winter.

Tours of the Wentworth House will also be available!
