Description
The Red Mill Museum Village will be hosting the first Hands-On History Traditional Crafts Festival, giving visitors a unique opportunity to step back in time and experience history firsthand. Attendees will have the opportunity to use the tools, complete the tasks and play the games of childhood as well as try their hands at the essential skills of daily life from the Colonial period to the early 1900s.
This event will also include live demonstrations including candle making, tinsmithing and more, presented by both Red Mill Museum Village staff and other artisans who are well-versed in practicing the skills of yesteryear. Many of these artisans will have items available for purchase at the event, including members of our sponsor organization the Collectors of Rare and Familiar Tools Society (CRAFTS of NJ) who will be sharing their knowledge and artifacts with attendees.
