Bring friends, family, renew acquaintances and enjoy the season.
Tickets are $35 for non-members, $ 30 for members and $ 15 for children to age 14. Reservations are strongly recommended, as this event sells out quickly!

Winslow House membership in the past year, now is the
time to do so. The Winslow

and community involvement. Join Today
While
restoration work on the historic house continues into 2008, the Winslow House
will also begin to upgrade its kitchen facilities. New bathrooms, new pipes,
and new amenities in the kitchen itself will make for an improved catering and
function facility. This should allow for an improved experience for visitors,
patrons and volunteers alike. It also should help entice more functions to the
location. The back kitchen work will commence in March and should be ready in
time for the House’s opening in mid-May.
