Victorian Christmas Evening

Silver City puts on its finest from the 19th Century for the annual Victorian Christmas Evening at the Silver City Museum. Reenactors dressed in clothing from the 1880s help visitors celebrate in the style common to Silver City before the turn of the century, and a visit from a frontier Father Christmas is always a favorite for kids and parents alike.

It features traditional decorations, music, hot mulled cider and holiday treats, all in the spirit of an old-fashioned community celebration. Visitors are welcome and need not be dressed in clothing from the period to enjoy the evening.
