Jane Austen’s Christmas
December 16, 2020 @ 6:00 pm
Start the Christmas celebrations with this wonderful Jane Austen birthday address by Dr. Claire Walsh about Georgian Christmases. Advent marked the start of Christmas but preparations would begin the week before on Stir Up Sunday. Houses were decorated with evergreens. There would be mumming, wassailing, bilbo-catch, spillikins, bullet pudding, and snapdragons.
