Come visit the Smith-McDowell House Museum and see how popular culture effected trends and styles from the 1840s through 1890s. The Smith-McDowell House Museum recently opened its �Pop Culture� Victorian Christmas Celebration with each room in this restored circa 1840 mansion being authentically decorated with fresh trees, garlands, ornaments, and toys of the Victorian Age.
The Museum�s acclaimed Victorian Christmas Celebration has been a tradition since 1981. Thanks to the help of dedicated docents, who serve as guides during this busy holiday season, the Museum is transformed for a proper Victorian Christmas. This special event will allow guests to see and feel an authentic Victorian Christmas. This year, the Museum will also have a special exhibit on American pop culture featuring trees from Brevard�s Aluminum Tree Museum (www.Aluminumtree.com)
Victorian Christmas Celebration runs November 15, 2005 through January 6, 2006. The Museum is open 10:00am to 4:00pm Tuesday through Saturday, and 1:00pm to 4:00pm Sunday. The Museum will be closed Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year�s Day. Admission is $7 for adults, $6 for students with a valid student id, and $5 for children under 18.
