Garst Museum
Holiday Open House
Garst Museum’s annual Holiday Open House will be held on Sunday,
December 4 from 1:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. The public is cordially invited
to attend. Everyone can tour the museum and the National Annie Oakley
Center at no charge on this one afternoon.
Highlights of the afternoon include live seasonal music, light
refreshments and beautiful decorations. The museum’s Christmas
collection will be used for decorating throughout the museum. Plan to
do a little Christmas shopping in the Museum Store, as there will be a
20% discount on all items.
The museum features a number of beautifully decorated Christmas trees
illustrating the talents of the following groups: The Wildflower Garden
Club, Junior Butterflies Garden Club, Sun and Fun Garden Club, Ladybug
Garden Club, Garden Ladies Garden Club, the VFW Women’s Auxiliary, and
the Fort Greene Ville Chapter of the Daughters of the American
Revolution.
Plan to stop by and enjoy the fun, shop, and also take advantage of the
free admission to tour the museum.
The Darke County Historical Society and the Garst Museum’s mission is
to collect, preserve, exhibit, study, and interpret materials relating
to the history and culture of Darke County, Ohio as part of the
development of the crossroads of the American experience. Permanent
exhibitions of national significance include the National Annie Oakley
Center, the Treaty of Greenville, Lowell Thomas, and Ohio Native
Americans.
