Christmas at the Wesley House: Nov. 14th, 2024 - Jan. 6th, 2025
Christmas Candlelight Open House: Dec. 7th

The Friends of Eden Gardens State Park invite the public to the Christmas Candlelight Open House throughout the park grounds on Saturday, December 7th from 5:00 PM to 8:00 PM. In keeping with the style of the Wesley House, this year’s theme for decorating the rooms and exterior will be a Victorian Christmas. Everyone's invited! Admission fees to the park are waived for the event. Donations to the Friends of Eden are welcome.

Over 2,000 luminaries will be lit and placed along the garden paths of the park and the House will be open and the decorated trees lit for the event, giving you the opportunity to experience the magic of Eden Gardens at nightfall. The Friends of Eden will provide live music, cookies and hot beverages.

Several organizations recently volunteered their time to decorate the rooms of the Wesley House for Christmas. The house will be decorated for a Victorian Christmas from November 14th, 2024 to January 6th, 2025 and open for tours each hour Thursday to Monday each week, from 10:00 a.m. to 3 p.m. You will be learning the history of the house itself, which is a treasure for the park and the community, and getting a chance to enjoy the very creative ways in which each room has been decorated by an amazing group of dedicated volunteers.
