Attend a Hearthside Dinner hosted by Remick Museum staff, including Museum Interpreter, Virginia Taylor.

 

 

Experience the warmth and charm of an early 19th century Hearthside Dinner, where the meal is cooked entirely on the open hearth. The Remick staff, dressed in traditional 19th century attire, prepare a nourishing meal using historic recipes and ingredients preserved fresh from the harvest. The menu for each meal varies, and rest assured, the ingredients were raised on site at the Remick. Hearthside Dinners are usually a cozy gathering of eight people, and they are designed for adult audiences. Young people age 16 and up are welcome with an adult in attendance. Reserve your place at the table by calling our Museum Receptionist at (800) 686-6117 or (603) 323-7591, or e-mail reception@remickmuseum.org.

 

Fee is $35.00 per person, and pre-registration is required.
