One of the biggest changes to the Hutchison House event line up is our popular annual Hogmanay event. Unfortunately despite several options presented, a variety of factors, including ongoing road construction, will once again prevent us from hosting our annual Hogmanay event in person. However, even if you can’t celebrate Hogmanay with us here at the museum, we would like to bring it to you. Hutchison House volunteers will be creating Hogmany meals-to-go with much of the food that we would normally serve here on January first. You must pre-order your meals by December 28, 2022. Meals will be available for curbside pick-up between 12pm and 2pm on January 1, 2023. Meals are $20 and will include: a Scotch egg, tatters and neeps, oatcakes, cheese, a 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.
Come and enjoy a tour of the museum as it is decorated for the holiday season and learn how the Hutchison family would have celebrated this time of year with our Victorian Christmas for Kids event on Saturday December 17 from 12pm to 4pm. There will be timed entry with a maximum of 15 visitors per time slot. Children can make a holiday craft, enjoy some festive treats and participate in several safe Christmas activities. Masks are required while touring the museum and high touch surfaces are cleaned between visitors. Admission is $8 per person, children under 5 are free. Register in advance to ensure a spot. For more information or to reserve your time slot please contact the museum office at 705-743-9710 or email us at info@hutchisonhouse.ca.
Come and sing along to all the favourite old time country and gospel tunes with Mary's Merry Minstrels. Enjoy songs of a love and salvation, love gone wrong and the joy of love-there might event be a train song or two. Spirits will soar as you listen to the moving melodies that leave you humming these songs for days. Mary's Merry Minstrels is a group of musicians who like to share the music they love and they have graciously offered to come and play here at Polson Park FMC!
All proceeds from this event will go towards the completion of our accessibility ramp at the Polson Park Free Methodist Church

If you had to tell someone why Christmas was important to you, what would you say? What stories or songs of the season bring back happy memories for you? Why do they never seem to grow old? This concert will feature not only the concert choir and chamber orchestra, but will also highlight the Bel Canto Children’s Choirs as well as many other performers from the community. From “Twas the Night” to the “Jingle Bells”, this concert will feature some of the most cherished carols from our past and new renditions from today. The highlight will be THE POLAR EXPRESS, featuring the choirs and orchestra.
Tickets: $22.50 + handling fee
