Chief Justice John Marshall celebrated two weeks of Christmastide in the 1790s, and spent much of that time gaming with friends! In holiday celebration, join the historic John Marshall House for old fashioned parlor games and cookie decorating on Friday, December 9th. Game tables will be set up throughout the first floor of the 1790 house, with historic gaming options such as Whist, or more modern favorites like Uno, and everything in-between! Holiday cookie decorating (gluten free options available), hot chocolate and eggnog, and snacks will be available in the cellar and included in your ticket price. Don’t miss this rare chance to celebrate the holidays at the John Marshall House after hours. Bring yourself or bring a group to usher in the holiday season!

We will have timed entries at both 5 p.m. and 6:30 p.m. to manage flow and capacity. Tickets are $25/person and must be reserved in advance. Your admission includes access to parlor games in the historic interiors of the John Marshall House, as well as cookie decorating and refreshments.
