We’re thrilled to announce that starting January 31st, you can experience history in action every Friday at Fort Martin Scott with live sewing demonstrations! Our skilled educators will expertly recreate authentic hand-sewing techniques from the late 1840s, crafting a stunning women’s ensemble to be unveiled at our First Annual Frontier Fest, April 17-19. The program will continue to evolve in the weeks leading up to the event, offering visitors the chance to participate hands-on and immerse themselves in the process. Join us each Friday for a full day of demonstrations—come with your questions and curiosity, and don’t miss this unique opportunity to witness the artistry and craftsmanship of historical sewing in action!
