Christmas in July lecture series

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

We are considering hosting a series of 3 lectures during July, probably Thursday evenings. Jim Morrison, our curator and historian, would speak, then offer a guided tour of the Center. Possible topics are Lancaster's Christmas history, Christmas in Black and White (photos)...

Does anyone have any other ideas or suggestions for topics?

We are thinking about having a fee for the lecture only, and a fee for the lecture plus the tour.

Jim has an extensive archive of Christmas advertisements, postcards, photographs, sheet music, literature, research and more from which to draw. He probably could cover just about any aspect of Christmas in a lecture.

Please feel free to share your ideas.

Walk from "Nazareth" to "Bethlehem" in The First Christmas

Walk from "Nazareth" to "Bethlehem" in The First Christmas
Life-sized figures and realistic scenery transport you back in time over 2000 years. Journey with Mary and Joseph. See a typical home of the time and a humble carpenter's shop. Navigate through a caravansary - an oasis marketplace, a rest stop for weary travelers. Experience the dangers of the journey, and be awed by the appearance of a glowing angel. Hear Latin and Aramaic being spoken, and listen to the music of the time. Join the shepherds' trek and at the end of the journey, in a humble grotto, behold the birth of Christ.
