Candlelight Christmas

Walk the candlelit paths at Barrington Plantation and experience a Texas Christmas in the decade before the Civil War.  Discover the origins of some of our favorite Holiday traditions as costumed interpreters bring to life the festivities of the season with musket-fire, music, dancing and more!  Tour the historic home of the last President of the Republic, Dr. Anson Jones, as the family enjoys their Christmas gathering.  Visit the farm’s quarters to hear how the enslaved at Barrington celebrated the season.  Sip a hot cup of cider, cozy up to the fire and begin your holiday season with Washington on the Brazos State Historic Site. This is a special program at the Plantation. Contact Barb King at 936-878-2214 x246.
