Although Christmas season celebrations in the 18th century looked different than they do today, gift-giving, singing, feasting, and religious services were common practices. Join members of the Governor’s Musick as they take you on a musical journey through the Christmastide season, and explore how Williamsburg celebrated the holidays, or holy-days, as you compare Williamsburg’s traditions to your own.
