Deed Day: 250 Years in the Making

Come celebrate with us! On Aug. 11, 250 years ago, Col. William Bratton signed the deed to purchase 200 acres of land. Visitors to the house on "Deed Day" can celebrate the property's history by examining his house, walking through the grounds and seeing original Bratton collection items that show just how different things were in 1766. The day of celebration will include music and a picnic on the Colonel’s front lawn. Bring a picnic or enjoy food from a local food truck.

Regular admission fees apply. CHM members are admitted free of charge.
