I do not think so!Join the Falmouth Historical Society’s Executive Director Rachel Lovett and Research Manager Meg Costello on an informative and comical journey to hear how New Englanders did not actually celebrate Christmas until the mid to late 19th century. Using the Society’s c. 1790 Dr. Francis Wicks House, as a backdrop, the pair will share stories about how Christmas evolved into the holiday we love today through literature from Charles Dickens’ “A Christmas Carol” and Falmouth’s own poet Katharine Lee Bates’ “Goody Santa Claus.” From Puritans outlawing Christmas to dubious 19th century Falmouth Congregational ministers frowning upon festivities but secretly supplying gifts for children, this tour is a fun and informative way to celebrate, and learn a little more about our New England predecessors.Refreshments will be served in the Portrait Gallery.$35 per person/$25 Members.

One of the most popular sites in Falmouth for visitors, it contains the 1790 Dr. Francis Wicks House—a magnificent Federalist-period residence with guided tours demonstrating what life was like for an affluent physician in the late 18th and early 19th centuries; the recently-restored 1730 Conant House—used for exhibits, research and genealogy studies; the Hallett Barn Visitors’ Center—rebuilt in 2002 on the site of an original barn and used a welcoming point for those coming to Falmouth as well as the “Whaling Wives Gift Shop”; the Colonial Gardens—showing off plantings, such as a boxwood tree, that go back to the days prior to the American Revolution; Memorial Park—a tranquil place of refuge that is open to all visitors looking for relaxation; and the recently-opened (2012) Cultural Center—a superb, 3600 square foot structure used for public and private programs and events, public restrooms, kitchen facilities, and as a repository for archival collections to preserve Falmouth’s past. It also has a series of rotating historical exhibits throughout the campus. " } ] } ] ```
