The Brick Township Historical Society will host a historical Christmas celebration Friday and Saturday, giving residents a glimpse into what Christmas was like in town more than a century ago.
The historical society will hold its annual Christmas celebration Dec. 7 and 8 from 3 to 7 p.m. at its Havens Homestead Museum, 521 Herbertsville Road, Brick. This year’s theme is “Winter Wonderland,” and the buildings will be showcasing the theme with old-fashioned decorations. Homemade refreshments and entertainment will be provided.
