A Colonial Thanksgiving at the Miller-Cory House

2-4 pm

A special day of thanks has been part of the American tradition since

1621. The Miller-Cory House Museum cooks will demonstrate the preparation of an early American Thanksgiving feast over the museum’s open-hearth fire, using colonial recipes and seasonal ingredients. (Please note that this is a demonstration only; dinner is not being served.) Proper colonial dining also requires proper table customs. The program includes a presentation on authentic early American manners, place settings, and other interesting “table top traditions.” Docents will be available to give visitors a “quick look” tour of the fully furnished colonial era farmhouse. Admission is $5 ages 13 and older; $3 ages 3-12, and free age 2 and younger.

The Miller Cory House Museum is located at 614 Mountain Avenue in

Westfield, NJ. Call the museum at 908-232-1776 or email
