Walk Through Christmas Past: Illuminated Scenes of a 1940s Christmas

Sat, November 22 - Sun, November 23, 2025


Look through the windows of the Village’s illuminated buildings and see scenes of a 1940s Christmas come alive!

This is a free event. Cash donations will be collected at the door. Donations will be split 50/50 between Memory Lane Heritage Village and our local food bank. Please do not bring food donations.

If you’ve ever been mesmerized by the magical scenes in a snow globe, then you will love this twilight holiday walk through Memory Lane Heritage Village on November 22 & 23, 2025

Stroll with your group along the lit paths. As you pass each building, peer through the windows and discover traditional Christmas scenes illuminated before you. You’ll find children practicing for the Christmas Pageant in the Schoolhouse, and holiday baking underway in the Webber House. What animals are being put to bed in the Barn? Many surprises await you at this outdoor holiday event, including a chance to take a photo with our vintage red truck, just back from picking up a freshly cut Christmas tree down the road! 

Time: 4:00pm to 7:00pm

This is a drizzle / light rain or shine event. High winds, heavy rains, ice and snow may lead to cancellation or postponement.
Please note, pets are not allowed on the Heritage Village grounds and smoking is prohibited.
