Join us on a special holiday tour of the Bush-Holley House in Greenwich, CT. This guided tour introduces visitors to two distinct time periods in the history of both the house and the town: the New Nation era (1790-1825), when the house was home to the wealthy mercantile Bush family and the individuals they enslaved; and the Art Colony era (1890-1920), when the Holley family ran it as a boarding house and home to Connecticut’s first art colony. With the house decorated for the holidays, visitors will enjoy a festive walk through the Christmas traditions of the Bush and Holley families. Participants will learn about early American holiday celebrations among the Bush family and their Greenwich neighbors and will enjoy the stories of Christmastime with the Holley family and their artist friends in the era of the Cos Cob Art Colony.
