Event Details

The American holiday season as we now know it evolved during the 19th and early 20th century, largely due to works of authors, artists and songwriters – many of whom had distinct ties to Westchester County. In this virtual presentation, Barbara Davis, co-director of the Westchester County Historical Society, traces the evolution of Christmas traditions and will highlight celebrations at Westchester’s historic sites.

This presentation will be over Zoom.
