Museum open houses and "Fire in the Hole"

The Iron Work Farm continues its series of combined “4th Sunday” events with a museum open house at Jones Tavern (1 to 3 p.m.) and at the Jones-Faulkner Homestead (3 to 5 p.m.), as well as the first part of a two-part program for children on colonial ceramics, “Fire in the Hole.” 

For “Fire in the Hole,” part of our hands-on Colonial Life series for children and families, from 12 to 5 p.m. at the Faulkner Homestead we will dig and build a kiln pit, and learn how to process clay and make a vessel for the dining table. A traditional colonial rough, working man's lunch will be served in the field.
