MUSEUM OF EARLY SOUTHERN
EEOORATIVE ARTS
TO CELEBRATE HOLIDAY
SEASON WITH MESDA
YUEETIDE
WINSTON-SALEM, NO - The Museum of Early Southern Decorative
Arts (MESDA) will reveal the warm and hospitable holiday traditions of
the early South on Saturday, December 7 with MESDA Yuletide.
The earliest southern settlers knew nothing of Santa Claus and the
volume of gifts exchanged today in more modern holiday celebrations.
Nor was Christmas Day considered a holiday, free of work and the
obligations of commerce. Rather, these early Americans found their
holiday delight in welcoming each other into their homes to enjoy
traditional festivities, bounteous meals, entertainment, and fellowship
during the otherwise dreary and cold months of December and January.
MESDA Yuletide re-creates many of the traditions and atmosphere of
the early South. The sounds of music and the scents of savory foods will
accompany ticketed visitors through the museum’s 24 period rooms and
six galleries of antique furniture, paintings, textiles, and ceramics. Tasty
displays of 18th and early 19th century feasts will decorate the tables as
fresh greenery will decorate the backcountry, low country and
Chesapeake rooms.
MESDA is the only museum dedicated to exhibiting and researching
the regional decorative arts of the early South. The museum is located in
the Horton Museum Center, 924 South Main Street, in Cld Salem.
MESDA Yuletide tickets are $10 for adults and $6 for children or can be
purchased as part of Cld Salem’s All-in-Cne pass. Final entry is at 4 p.m.
For more information about MESDA Yuletide or the museum, please
call (336) 721-7360 or visit the website, www.oldsalem.org.
