Join us for a day trip to experience Yuletide at Winterthur Museum, Garden & Library in Wilmington, DE. This year's Yuletide Tour celebrates home and all things home can mean, from places and people to food, music, and traditions. Attendees can explore the former country estate of Henry Francis du Pont on a self-guided tour of the mansion, where sparkling vignettes throughout the house explore the many ways we seek comfort, belonging, and tradition at home.
Beyond the mansion, the day includes Winterthur's museum exhibitions and galleries, home to the most extensive collection of American decorative arts in the world. Holiday favorites include an original gingerbread display and a charming three-story dollhouse filled with thousands of miniatures. Weather permitting, a 30-minute guided open-air garden tram tour offers a look at the grounds.
Attendees will have about 4 hours to explore the museum and enjoy lunch on their own. Lunch can be purchased on site at the museum's café, and the Museum Store offers seasonal décor and unique gifts.
Advance ticket purchase is required. The charter bus will leave at 9:00am from the Rehoboth Beach Fresh Market parking lot on Thursday, December 10, with check-in beginning at 8:45am. The bus is expected to return to Rehoboth at approximately 5:00pm.
Tickets are $85/person. Seats are limited. Please be advised that any cancellations after November 30 cannot be refunded.
