Home for the Holidays

December 19 @ 1:30 pm - 3:30 pm

The gardens at Stoneleigh steal the show from spring to fall, but in wintertime, the warmth of the Main House beckons. During this exclusive holiday showcase, don’t miss the chance to explore all three floors of the spectacular Tudor Revival-style mansion while it is decked with nature-inspired decorations. We invite you to indulge in seasonal beverages and tasty treats while enjoying performances from local musicians and vocalists, all in a festive and cozy setting. Between cookie breaks, take a guided tour of the pipes of Stoneleigh’s Aeolian-Skinner Opus 878 residence organ and chat with staff and volunteers about the magnificent stories of the Main House and its residents.  

History, music, and holiday cheer will be on full display at our annual Home for the Holidays celebration.  

All events will feature local musicians including choirs, instrumentalists, and organists. Please check back soon for details about this year’s featured performers.
