Spinning Exhibition in Brookfield Sunday

Past event
Jul 21, 2019, 2 to 4 PM

How did we create yarn from sheep's wool in the olden days? Come see a live artisan demonstration of the use of the spinning wheel at the Marvin Newton House, Brookfield's history museum, this Sunday, July 21st from 2:00 to 4:00 p.m. Also make it a doubleheader in Brookfield and visit Market Day at the Old Town Hall from 12:00 noon to 3:00 p.m. with a variety of locally crafted products and food. And kids can choose various ingredients to be added to the blender on the back of a stationary bike, and then pedal fast to blend them into a delicious smoothie!

REMINDER
The Marvin Newton House, the Brookfield Historical Society's museum (1 mile south from Pond Village at 1133 Ridge Road - look for the "Open" banner) , is open to the public every Sunday in July and August from 2:00 to 4:00 p.m. Come visit us and see the wonderfully preserved artifacts, tools, clothing and household items from bygone years in Brookfield. Ever see a boot dryer actually manufactured in Brookfield? Amazing stuff!
Also, the Old Town Hall is located at 93 Stone Road, just 3 doors up from Brookfield's Floating Bridge.
