Heritage Center celebrates a wartime Christmas
Civil War Holiday
Period re-enactors welcome guests to McDaniel Farm as they prepare to step back to December 1862 and celebrate the Christmas season during the Civil War.
The Gwinnett Environmental and Heritage Center invites folks to step back in time and participate in the holiday traditions of Christmas during the Civil War. Join the Union and Confederate troops on the front lines and on the home front at the fifth annual Civil War holiday program at McDaniel Farm from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday, Dec. 8. “This is a great family event for those who desire to learn and experience how the Civil War impacted Atlanta area families, especially during the holiday season,” said Jason West, GEHC’s director of programming and development.
