Living
in the Dark:
A Full Moon Tour
Friday, October 22 at 7pm.
What was it like to live in the dark with only the Moon and a few candles to light your way? Living in the Dark will explore life before the electric light.
Enjoy
this special evening tour of
the beautiful Governor Gore
mansion. Led by a guide in
period clothing, these tours
focus on life in the early
19th century.
Why is it called a Full
Moon Tour?
These tours take place each month
on an evening near the full
moon.
The full moon was very important to early settlers as well as Native Americas. By providing additional light at night, the full moon allowed them to work late into evening and made night-time travel safer.
Though
varied in theme, each Full
Moon Tour includes the
major rooms of the mansion
and offers a glimpse into
the fascinating world of the
Gores.
Admission
for Full Moon Tours is
$12 adults, $8 children 5-12.
Please note, these tours are designed for adults and older children and are not appropriate for children under 6 years of age. Parking is free.
For advanced tickets, call: (781) 894-2798.
