  • This event has passed.

In the past, labor and daily routines were planned around when the sun rose and set. So how did people see at night before electric light? Explore a historic tavern to find out! We’ll uncover how we learn about the past from the writing and objects people left behind, and learn how to make a working candle from beeswax and a lantern from tin. Kids will learn how people of the past used tools to make the world around them easier to navigate.

This program is recommended for 3rd – 5th graders.

$15 members, $20 nonmembers

Advanced tickets required. Since children will be dropped off for this program, a LHS Children’s Program Participation Form is required, which is available at checkout.
