Our Christmas gathering is an opportunity to invite our neighbors and the public to experience Whitehall, and to learn a bit about what we do to honor George Berkeley’s important contribution to the intellectual life of the Colonies.
Beyond the lovely decorations of greens and fruit and candles (now electric) which are reminiscent of an earlier time, the house is filled with traditional Christmas music, provided by a live musician and our guests, who love to sing along. The Colonial Dames prepare a wassail bowl and delicious Christmas treats. We welcome guests of all ages to experience an old fashioned way of celebrating Christmas, without modern commercial overtones. Members of the Newport artillery welcome our guests and join in the festivities.
