Sounds and Sights of a Colonial Farmhouse
The Ball-Sellers House, the oldest structure in the county (c. 1750) is celebrating the beginning of its 2024 season with music from the colonial era.
The Monumental City Ancient Fife and Drum Corps will perform from 1:30 to 2:30, followed by Guillotine Theatre singing colonial songs and lead us in sing-alongs. Visit the oldest house in the county, now a free museum run by the Arlington Historical Society.
-- Bring a chair and enjoy the show as re-enactors help transport you back in time.
-- Tour the house with a docent who can tell you how it was built, how people lived, and trace all of Arlington history in this one house.
-- Taste colonial era sweet treats
-- See a colonial era garden, model bee hives, and a modern rain garden at work.
-- You’ll also see memorials to the three enslaved people who lived and toiled here in the 1800s. These are the first memorials in the county that honor the lives of the enslaved
