In the room secluded from the quiet of the rest of the floor, Victorian Christmas hymns were played on a century-and-a-half-old Chickering piano and students created Christmas cards on an 1880 clamshell printing press. Toward the end of the event, Eric Ames, director of Advancement, Exhibits and Community Engagement donned traditional Victorian dress and recited the classic tale of “The Night Before Christmas” accompanied by cheerful Christmas music on the piano. Even the baked goods offered for attendees to eat were made from Victorian recipes.
