Old Time Winter Family Day at Vermilionville

Vermilionville's Historic Village will receive a holiday makeover, transporting visitors back in time to experience the simple beauty of Louisiana Christmases past—drawing on the traditions of the Acadian, Creole, and Native American cultures that lived here. Sing carols, hear stories, decorate cookies, make bousillage ornaments, citrus pomanders, and candles, and more. French Santa Claus, who was historically a trapper known to deliver candy, money, and small toys to good little girls and boys, will make an appearance. 10 am–4 pm. $5. bayouvermilionvilledistrict.org.
