Gaston County Museum is holding its annual Holiday Open House on Friday, December 9th, 2016, from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. It’s free to attend and no reservations are required.
Come see the Hoffman Hotel decorated for the season, visit the Museum Gift Shoppe for gifts and stocking stuffers, listen to carols being sung and accompanied by music on the 100+ year old pump organ, and decorate cookies. After the Dallas Christmas Parade, visitors will get the chance to meet some very interesting traditional characters from early Christmas celebrations: Saint Nicholas, The Krampus and The Christkindl.
