Celebrate Christmas of yesteryear with the James A. Ramage Civil War Museum on Sunday, Dec. 13 from noon to 5 p.m. It’s a free, family-friendly event with some special activities — including a visit from Santa — for children.
The Museum, located in Fort Wright, preserves and interprets Northern Kentucky’s unique role in the Civil War through archaeology, education and research. The Museum also informs visitors about the history of the City of Fort Wright and its neighboring communities.
The museum will be decorated for the holidays, using natural materials like our ancestors used during the 19th Century.
Enjoy a special exhibit of antique dolls, toys and quilts — make ornaments and take one home. A highlight of the event will be a visit from Santa from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m.
Those looking for Christmas gifts can visit the gift shop and used book sale. Stocking stuffers include keychains, replica toys, books and other Civil War-related items.
The museum has more than 1,000 used and collectible Civil War History books for sale. Many other military history and biographical titles are also available.
All proceeds benefit the James A. Ramage Civil War Museum.
The Museum is located at 1402 Highland Avenue in Fort Wright.
