Ease into the holiday spirit with a quiet moment of cheer before Marshall’s Wonderland of Lights Christmas Parade! Just a short stroll from the downtown excitement, the Starr Family Home offers a charming outdoor holiday gathering with warm spiced wassail, simple ornament-making for all ages, and a festive photo spot to capture your Christmas memories.

Enjoy the peaceful atmosphere of our historic yard before heading to the parade. Downtown parking fills up quickly, so park here early and make the most of your afternoon!

This event is outdoors only; please dress for the weather. Admission to this program is free, but house tour fees still apply for those wishing to view the interior of the historic home. Donations are welcome and appreciated.

Note: This program is scheduled to coincide with Marshall’s Wonderland of Lights Parade. If the parade is postponed due to weather, this program may be rescheduled as well. Please check our website or social media for updates.

The most successful music group and the third-highest-selling artist in the history of America’s Got Talent! These classically trained, versatile tenors have performed more than 1,700 concerts around the world, including headline shows in Las Vegas, China, and a 24-city tour of the United Kingdom. Recently, they were honored to be included among the top 50 acts in the world, and the only vocal group from the United States invited to appear on NBC’s America’s Got Talent: The Champions.

Warm up with the smells and stories of a 19th-century holiday kitchen at Fireside Feast! Throughout the day, site staff will demonstrate the preparation of a traditional Victorian-era dish on the kitchen’s 1889 Grand Quaker woodburning stove.

Guests are invited to drop in anytime to observe different stages of historic cooking in action, from fire tending and ingredient prep to simmering and serving. It’s a special chance to experience the rhythms of holiday foodways just as the Starr family might have had over a century ago.

Please note: This is a demonstration-only event. No food will be served or tasted. The experience is included with regular house admission and takes place indoors, with small groups admitted to the kitchen to ensure an up-close and engaging visit.

We’re offering two dates to make it easier to fit this festive experience into your holiday season. Join us on the day that works best for you!
