The Hiddenite Arts & Heritage Center will welcome the holiday season with “A Be-Jeweled Christmas,” a sparkling Christmas open house celebration at the historic Lucas Mansion, located at 316 Hiddenite Church Road in Hiddenite, on Friday, December 5.
Admission for the event, which runs from 4 to 8 p.m., is $10 for non-members and free for Friends of the Center.
This year’s theme, “A Be-Jeweled Christmas,” celebrates the grand opening of the Hiddenite Center’s new Geology Information Center, honoring the region’s rich gem and mineral heritage.
Guests will be enchanted by glittering decorations throughout the Victorian mansion, inspired by the beauty and brilliance of North Carolina’s natural treasures.
Live holiday music will be provided by the Todd Wright Trio. Guests will enjoy a festive spread of hors d’oeuvres while exploring the historic museum, art galleries, exhibits, and the brand-new Geology Information Center. Guided tours of the ornately decorated Victorian house museum will offer a glimpse into the elegance and charm of this historic home—shining as brightly as ever this holiday season.
This event is also a wonderful opportunity to renew your Friends of the Center membership or become a new member! Friends of the Center receive free admission to the Christmas Open House, free admission to the Lucas Mansion throughout the year, discounts on programs and classes, and a discount in the Hiddenite Center’s gift shop.
