The 62nd PA Volunteer Infantry Living History Family will once again act as hosts at the Armstrong County Historical Society’s Christmas Open House on Sunday, November 30th from 1-4 pm. This annual event is always one we look forward to, as we gather together as a living history family and welcome guests to the Armstrong County Historical Society. There will be three festively decorated buildings to tour that day- the McCain House Museum, the Rupp Log Cabin and the newly renovated Jim and Ann Oakes Carriage House, which will showcase vintage Christmas decorations from the 1940s-1970s.
The Armstrong County Historical Society is located at 300 North McKean St. Kittanning, PA 16201, with free parking nearby. This event is free and open to the public. We hope to see you at the open house, particularly to show you through the museum’s Civil War Room, which contains many artifacts, pictures, letters, and stories from local Civil War soldiers, including 62nd PA soldiers. Light refreshments will be served, and traditional folk music will be provided by a talented pair of guitar and violin players, The McCarney Minstrels. It promises to be a very festive old-fashioned Christmas!
