One of the biggest changes to the Hutchison House event line up is our popular annual Hogmanay event. Unfortunately no amount of adjusting this event could make it viable to run in 2021 with the current pandemic and social distancing requirements. However, even if you can’t celebrate Hogmanay with us here at the museum, we would like to bring it to you. All day long on January 1 Hutchison house will be flooding our social media accounts with Hogmanay content including history of the holiday and images from past events. If anyone has any video or images from past Hogmanays at the museum that they would like to share through our social media please contact the museum office at info@hutchisonhouse.ca. In addition to our social media, Hutchison House volunteers will be creating Hogmany meal-to-go with much of the food that we would normally serve here on January first. You must pre-order your meals by December 18, 2020. Meals will be available for curbside pick-up between 10am and 12pm on December 31, 2020. Meals are $20 and will include: a Scotch egg, tatters and neeps, oatcakes, cheese, and sample of potted salmon, shortbread and clootie dumpling. For an extra $5 you can also get a piece of Haggis.
For more information or to order a Hogmanay meal to go please contact the museum at 705-743-9710 or info@hutchisonhouse.ca.
