Legacy Keepers will be hosting “a glimpse into yesteryear with timeless beauties and riverboat floozies” from 1 to 5 p.m. Oct. 12 Logan Street Sanctuary, 1274 Logan St. Janet Gilray said the event gives families “chance to get your old time on that day.”
“We’re attempting to create a Sunday afternoon fun from the turn of the century,” she said. “We hope it’s a beautiful autumn day in the Gilded Age.”
Gilray said the event will include Victorian Era old-fashioned fun, live music, refreshments, crafts, classic cars, story time with Teri Ditslear and an American Girl and Steampunk fashion show. At 12:30 p.m. County historian David Heighway will lead a walking tour from the square to Logan Street Sanctuary. He will discuss the historical aspects of the area and homes. All activities are free except for the fashion show, which costs $5 for adults and $3 for children.
Gilray said Legacy Keepers is an organization that combines music, history and artifacts.
“We teach kids history through folk songs,” she said. “We’ll sing ‘Yankee Doodle’ and talk about the Revolutionary War and fashion.”
