Posted in New Dominion Tourist Magazine | 0 comments

Autumn is a busy time of year at the Frontier Culture Museum in Staunton.

The season gets going on Saturday, Oct. 1, with Oktoberfest, with German food and drink, music and dancing, children’s activities and games for kids of all ages. Oktoberfest runs from noon to 8 p.m. on Oct. 1.

A new event on the schedule at the Museum is the Oct. 14-15 Ancestral Skills Days, a weekend that will bring together practitioners of ancestral technologies, schoolchildren and the general public to learn and practice the skills of prehistoric peoples with demonstrations of flint-knapping, the uses of stone tools, bow and arrow making, soap stone bowl making, the uses of natural fibers, and Native American pottery and cooking demonstrations.

Also circle Oct. 27-29 on your calendars for the Frontier Culture Museum’s Creepy Tales, a candlelight guided tour of the Museum featuring The Oak Tree Park Monster, The Murder of Mungo Campbell and more.
