Holiday Magic

Museum Campus lights up for the holidays with our beloved annual Holiday Magic celebrations.

Enjoy special décor, including the festive palette trees with hundreds of spectacular artist-designed creations, Miss Florence’s boardinghouse decorated for a 1910 holiday, holiday gift shopping, and, best of all, Miss Florence’s Teas.

Miss Florence’s Teas return! We welcome you to sumptuously decorated rooms in our Marshfield House for delicious tea, sandwiches, treats (including that famous warm scone), and holiday memory-making. Catered by Gourmet Galley. This year's tea dates: December 1, 2026 to January 3, 2027. Tea seatings are offered Tuesday through Sunday, two seatings per day.
