Jump back in time with us to the 1910s! This year we are combining two of our most popular annual events into one throwback weekend! The festivities will be complete down to our throwback admission price of 25 cents!
Visit us the Rebecca Nurse Homestead on Saturday June 9 for our 7th annual Gala Day. In the early 20th century when The Rebecca Nurse Homestead became a Museum they hosted a "Gala Day & Garden Party Bazaar", and we are taking you back in time to experience that event.
Listen to Edwardian music, play period -style lawn games, see people dressed in clothing of the time. We will also be serving a limited amount of our famous Strawberry Shortcakes as well as other period treats!
Visit us on Sunday June 10 to help us commemorate World War 1. There will be WWI reenactors walking the site in period clothing. They will have tables to display various tools, weapons and equipment used during the time.
Event hours will be 10AM-3PM daily Saturday June 9 and Sunday June 10. Admission is a suggested donation of 25 cents per person. The Rebecca Nurse Homestead is located at 149 Pine St, Danvers, MA.
The Rebecca Nurse Homestead is a 17th century historic house museum set on 27 beautiful acres in the heart of Danvers MA. It is owned and operated by the Danvers Alarm List Company a premier 18th century reenactment group and is a 501(c)(3) non-profit company.
