Experience White Haven in the evening during the holidays.  Lights will illuminate the grounds and historic house. You will hear Christmas songs performed by the St. Louis Christmas Carolers outside the house. Inside, the decorated rooms will glow with candlelight* and as you walk through the house, you’ll hear period holiday music performed by guitarist Patrick Rafferty. In the dining room you can enjoy 19th century treats served by Suzanne Corbett, food historian, and learn about 19th century etiquette and holiday culinary customs. 
End the evening with a festive concert by the Buckhannon Brothers in the park’s theater at 7:00 pm. No reservations are required.
 All activities are free. Visitors are welcome to attend the open house, concert, or both! 
*For safety reasons, our candles will be battery operated.
 Note: Grant’s Farm will be open that evening for their walk-through holiday light. Our parking lot is open just for our visitors and is free.
