Christmas at Linden Place
November 27, 2015 - January 9, 2016 |
Linden Place Museum, located in downtown Bristol, Rhode Island, is celebrating the
holiday season with tours of the 200-year old Federal-style mansion beginning
Thanksgiving weekend and continuing throughout the
month of December.
Feel like a personal guest of the Colt family as you stroll through the festively decorated mansion rooms complete with beautiful wreaths, illuminated mantles and evergreen swags. From the festooned four-story spiral staircase to the trio of Christmas trees in the gothic conservatory to the charm of the early 20th century butler’s pantry, surprises await visitors around every corner.
This year, a scavenger hunt tours will be part of the celebration. Linden Place’s scavenger hunts offer children and adults the opportunity to see this historical house museum in a whole new light! Make your way through our 200-year old mansion rooms and seek out dozens of artifacts, big and small, while you learn about Linden Place's rich architectural and family history. Seek out a Roman, life-size marble statue of Bacchus, search for George Washington and find out the meaning behind the phrase “sleep tight and don’t let the bedbugs bite!” Fun and educational for all ages!
Linden Place Mansion and Museum Store, where you will find beautiful one-of-a-kind gifts, will be open Tuesdays through Saturdays from 10 a.m. until 5 p.m. and Sundays from 12 p.m. to 5 p.m. from November 27th through January 9th. Admission during the holiday season is $10.00 for adults, $8.00 seniors and $ 6.00 for youths (6-17; children under 6 are admitted free).
