Head to the Mesier Homestead for a fun family event complete with stories, decorations, traditional Dutch holiday treats and a visit from St. Nicholas himself!

Discover the history of Sinterklaas and learn about the holiday traditions the early Dutch settlers brought with them to New Netherland. Learn how Sinterklaasavond (St. Nicholas eve) was celebrated in the home, and taste some of the traditional Dutch sweets which were part of the festivities. Activities for children are part of the program.

The program takes place at 1, 2:15 and 3:30 p.m. and is designed especially for elementary school-aged children. Due to limited space at the Homestead, advanced purchase is strongly suggested; walk-ins accepted if space allows. To purchase tickets, click here.
