What if you could step into Christmas the way it was celebrated centuries ago — without ever leaving Mount Airy?
Imagine spending a December afternoon inside a warm 1756 parlor, surrounded by evergreen boughs, candlelight, and the timeless words of Dickens. Wouldn’t a glass of mulled wine in hand make the moment even more magical?
At Elk Run’s Dickens Open House — now celebrating 45 years of tradition — each ticket invites you to experience:
Wine by the glass
Hors d’oeuvres prepared by Set the Table
Live dramatic readings of Dickens and seasonal classics
Actors in period costumes, bringing Victorian Christmas to life
A historic Maryland home dressed in 1800s décor
A strolling troubadour filling the winery grounds with festive song
Doesn’t that sound like a perfect way to slow down during the busy season?
With performances between 1–4 PM, seating in the parlor is limited — would you prefer to reserve your spot now rather than risk missing out?
Bring the family. Make memories. Rediscover Christmas as it once was.
