The North Berrien Historical Museum will host its annual Holiday Open House on December 5-6, 2009.

The museum will feature over 15 decorated Christmas trees and other holiday décor across the museum campus. Many of the trees this year are sponsored and decorated by local businesses and civic organizations.

The museum will be open special hours both days from 10-4. New this year is Santa’s Workshop where children will be able to make a free craft in an “elves only” area for their parents. Santa’s workshop will take place all day on Saturday and Sunday. Santa & Mrs. Claus will be available to visit with children both days from 2-4. Musical performances will take place throughout the weekend by local performers.

Gingerbread house making will be available on both Saturday and Sunday afternoons from 1-4. The cost of making a house is $5. Finally on Sunday, a holiday cookie walk will take place from 1-4pm. For $5 visitors can fill a box with their favorite cookies to take home.

The museum will be collecting unwrapped toys for Toys for Tots during the open house and throughout the holiday season.
