Family Day at the Depot on Dec. 9!

HOLIDAY OPEN HOUSE ON DECEMBER 9, FROM 10 AM - 1 PM

The following information was provided by the Historic Union Depot.

The Duluth Depot, also known as St. Louis County Heritage & Arts Center, would like to welcome everyone to join us for a Holiday Open House on December 9th, from 10am until 1pm. The Duluth Depot will offer our $25 Family Rate all day, which means your entire immediate family gets admission to all four floors of the Duluth Depot’s museums for just $25 all day long. In addition, from 10:00 – 1:00 the Duluth Depot’s Participating Member Organizations will be hosting hot cocoa and cookies in the Great Hall.

Veterans Memorial Hall, the Duluth Art Institute, and the Historic Union Depot are also partnering on a children’s letter writing campaign to the troops under the umbrella of the VMH’s History in a Half-Pint program. We invite children to come and make cards, draw pictures, or write letters, which will be sent to troops for the Holidays. We will also have Reenactors and local Veterans on hand to reinforce the importance of getting mail from home and how it affected them both during and after conflicts.

Lastly, if you are feeling in a generous mood this holiday season, the Duluth Depot will have a Mitten Tree in our Great Hall. If you would like to bring a pair of new or gently used mittens or gloves to donate, please place them on our Mitten Tree and we will give them to a local charity later this holiday season.
