This is Lone Star History Day at Dallas Heritage Village, located in historic Old City Park, the museum uses its collections of historic buildings and furnishings, representing the period 1840-1910. The museum is composed of 38 historic structures & boasts a working Civil War era farm, a traditional Jewish household, elegant Victorian homes, a school, a church & commercial buildings.
We met up with the Gungans and the Sanderfords for the homeschool event. A curator for the Sixth Floor Museum gave a presentation of Dallas' history, and then we proceeded on to the hands on events. Everything from blacksmiths, to carriage rides, we had a great time.
