The historic Thomas Leiper House will host its annual Colonial Christmas Open House on Sunday, December 15, from 1-5 p.m. The rooms are decorated by six local garden clubs, and refreshments will include a birthday cake honoring Mr. Leiper’s December 15, 1745 birth in Strathaven, Scotland. 

The event is free, but donations for house maintenance and historic research are always welcome. The house will also be open during regular weekend hours, 1-4 p.m., on December 7, 8, 14, 21, and 22.
