An Old Fashioned Valentine Event
You’re invited to attend an evening of sweet traditions from the Victorian Era to today, at the McFaddin-Ward House!
Celebrate the old-fashioned, with a new twist! Make the McFaddin-Ward House part of your First Thursday on Calder. Dress in party clothes or your favorite vintage-inspired outfit, come alone or with someone special, and enjoy period music and dance demos. Watch a silhouette artist at work, sample chocolate treats and champagne, learn the language of flowers, make a Valentine, and enjoy interpretations of Victorian etiquette while you tour the first floor of the museum.
