Summer Saturday

Join us for a hybrid experience this summer, as we help uncover hands-on history at  Gunston Hall and virtually at home.  From 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. each Saturday we’ll be onsite with activities for you and your family to try during your visit.  At 11 a.m., we’ll also be live on Zoom with activities including crafts, recipes, and games you can do right in your own home.
