Santa and Mrs. Claus will visit the Monroe County Local History Room in Sparta from 1–3 p.m. Saturday, Dec. 2.
Children will be invited to sit on Santa’s lap and have their photos taken with him. The event is being held in conjunction with the “1950s Christmas” display on exhibit at the Monroe County Local History Room. Highlighted with dozens of classic toys under the tree, this retro holiday display recreates what Christmas morning might have looked like 60 years ago.
Museum and event admission is free. The Monroe County Local History Room is located at 200 W. Main St. in Sparta. Regular museum hours are from 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday through Saturday. Also, it will be open until 8 p.m. on Nov. 24–25, Dec. 1–2, and Dec. 8–9. For more information, call 269-8680 or visit Facebook.com/MCLHR.
