History of Santa Claus
December 3, 2021 @ 11:00 am - 12:00 pm
Join Associate Curator Christine Brin for a presentation about everyone’s favorite jolly ol’ elf! This informational presentation takes a look at the way that the legend of Santa has evolved over the last 1,500 years and touches on Santa’s support crew: Mrs. Claus, the reindeer and elves. (The presentation is family-friendly and does not question the existence of Santa.) The free program will be held in the museum’s auditorium and simulcast over Facebook and Zoom. The Zoom program is the only one that requires registration.

Registration and Refund Policy:
Registration costs, less a 10% fee, are refunded when the museum receives cancellation notice at least 48 hours before the start of a program. There is no refund within 48 hours of the start of a program, and tickets cannot be transferred to a later program date within that 48 hour timeframe. Due to material costs and supply, Harvey W. Smith Watercraft Center Courses require a 2-week notification for cancellations; only the course fee is refunded if cancellation occurs prior to 2 weeks. The Museum reserves the right to cancel any program that does not meet the minimum participant requirement up to one week before the program is scheduled. In the event of cancellation due to low enrollment, participants who have submitted a fee will receive a full refund. If a program is canceled due to inclement weather and unable to be rescheduled for another date, the participants will receive a full refund.
