Twilight History
Youth 8-12 years of age will explore American
history and follow in the footsteps of George
Washington, his family, and his friends. They will
learn about history with hands-on activities,
projects, and games at Hugh Mercer Apothecary,
Mary Washington House, and Rising Sun Tavern.
Children will learn about 18th-century food,
medicine, and daily life as they explore the places
that George Washington knew well. In this
evening program, most activities will take place
outside in small groups. Participants will visit a
new museum each night of the program. While
we currently don't anticipate that masks will be
required, WHM will comply with CDC guidance
at the time of the event. Your children will travel
through history, and you will be free to enjoy
three summer evenings in downtown
Fredericksburg! After purchasing tickets, you will
receive an email confirmation along with a link
to fill out a registration form required for each
child attending. Fee charged. 540-373-5630.
