Join us for our Annual Home Educators’ Living History Day for children. The program is geared for children ages 8 to 10 years old, although children younger and older benefit and can participate in the hands-on experience of 18th-century life. Programs vary, and may include spinning and weaving, blacksmithing, pottery, a walking tour, Colonial medicine, basket making, tin punching, and rope making.

There will be one spring day of Living History offered for homeschool students: Friday, April 21, 2023, 8:30am until 12:30pm. Families will be assigned to a group and will rotate from station to station on a timed schedule.  If you prefer to be in the same group as another family who is attending, you must give notification at the time of purchasing your tickets by emailing info@redhill.org. No group changes will be made after April 17. Tickets must be purchased online prior to April 17 at 5 pm. After this time, tickets will not be available.

Living History will end at 12:30 and families can eat their packed lunches on the grounds. After lunch, your time is your own. Please feel free to walk the trails, visit the historic buildings again, or head home.

Advance Registration is Required for this Event. Adults/Chaperones are $6/each, Children 4 and up are $5/each, and Children 3 and under are $1/each

Tickets are non-refundable. This is a rain-or-shine event. After purchasing tickets, a confirmation email will be sent to you.
