Celebrate the holiday season with the Morgan’s annual display of the original manuscript of Charles Dickens’s A Christmas Carol plus crafts and activities themed to current exhibitions. Enjoy magic and music with strolling characters Ebenezer Scrooge, Bob Cratchit, and the Ghost of Christmas Present, then see a lively and very merry rendition of A Christmas Carol in the grand library.

Pose for family pictures in the historic parlor with medieval costume props created by artist Pam Koehler.  Inspired by exhibit Seeds of Knowledge: Early Modern Illustrated Herbals, create scent sachets using aromatic ingredients such as lavender and rose petals. Celebrate the fabulous jeweled bindings and coins on display in Morgan’s Bibles: Splendor in Scripture and Medieval Money, Merchants, and Morality by designing an original golden book cover.
