Calendar

Each year on the vernal equinox, observers on the Lapham-Patterson House’s third floor can see an unusual play of light and shadow. Last year, we had to cancel our annual celebration of this effect but we’re back this year with special tour hours to maximize your viewing of the effect chances and keep you safe. The damaged woodwork on the bargeboard has also been replaced so the “effect” should be in full glory (weather depending). Each tour will include a guided tour of the first floor of the House and ample time to independently explore the 2nd and 3rd floors, including time to view the light and shadows. Masks are required and regular admission rates apply. We will have a maximum capacity of 10 people per hour. Reservations are required. Remember, members receive free admission to the Lapham-Patterson House. Payment will be accepted upon arrival. If you sign up and cannot attend, please let us know as soon as possible so that we may offer the opportunity to other interested guests. Should the need arise, we will create a waiting list. Admission: Adults (18+) $10, Students (6-17) $3. 3/19: https://www.signupgenius.com/go/10c0c4ea8a82da4f9c70-spring 3.20: https://www.signupgenius.com/go/10c0c4ea8a82da4f9c70-spring1 Website: https://www.thomasvillehistory.org/events/spring-equinox-tours-at-the-lapham-patterson-house/ Continue the fun with our Stained "Glass" Window kits!
