The Gibson House Museum is the only house museum in Back Bay. Since 1957, it has told the story of the Gibson family’s daily life during the mid-nineteenth and early twentieth centuries through their everyday possessions, decorative objects, and furnishings. On Sunday, December 17, from 1 – 4, the house will be decorated for the holidays as it would have been decorated when the Gibsons were in residence. This year, we have two new, historically appropriate trees: a tabletop goose-feather tree and an eight-foot Noble Fir with LED candles that give a sense of what lit wax candles were like during the Gibsons’ time. Light seasonal refreshments will be served. For more information visit www.thegibsonhouse.org. No reservations necessary!
