Spotlight: Folkways of the Holidays at the Landing

The holidays are all about tradition, and you can experience holiday traditions of 19th-century Minnesota at Folkways of the Holidays. Decorations, music, foods, costumed re-enactors and interpreters demonstrate the rich cultural and faith traditions of the Minnesota River Valley, including Norwegian, Swedish, Irish, French Canadian, German Catholic, Jewish and more.
