1890 House Wassail

Step into a Victorian winter wonderland at the 1890 House Museum’s Annual Wassail Open House! This free, family-friendly celebration fills the grand mansion with glittering Christmas trees, twinkling lights, and the scent of traditional Wassail Punch in the air. Enjoy festive fare, live seasonal music, and surprise visits from Santa and The Grinch as you wander through rooms brimming with holiday cheer. No sign-ups needed, just bring your holiday spirit (and, if you’d like, a canned good to donate to the local food pantry) and make this timeless Cortland tradition part of your season’s celebrations.
