The Rogers Historical Museum is hosting their 25th annual holiday open house Saturday, December 13 from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. This year’s theme is A Rogers Christmas.

This free event features guided tours of the 1895 Hawkins House featuring the charm of our cozy Christmas cottage carefully decorated to show how a middle-class family, living in Rogers at the turn of the 20th century, would prepare and decorate their home during the holiday season. In addition to our special walk-through Christmas of the past tour, there will be holiday crafts to make and a letter to Santa writing station. Enjoy Christmas refreshments provided by the Friends of the Rogers Historical Museum. Santa Claus will be here to visit, so be sure to bring your wish list. Santa will also be reading Clement Moore’s famous story, “’Twas the Night Before Christmas” at 1:00 p.m., followed by a Christmas carol sing-along.
