Since 2011, thousands of Christmas holiday visitors to Cape May’s Emlen Physick Estate, 1048 Washington Street, both young and old, have delighted in “An Old-Fashioned Christmas Exhibit: Holiday Traditions through the Years,” which has become an annual part of Cape May’s festive holiday season. Experience an exhibit of holiday traditions complete with a giant Christmas tree, a Dept. 56 Dickens Village, model trains, nostalgic photos from Christmas past, toys and much more. The Mid-Atlantic Center for the Arts & Humanities (MAC) received a donation in 2009 of an extensive Dept. 56 Dickens Village Collection from Ernie & Betsy Heegard. The collection has become the integral piece in this exhibit, which is open daily Nov. 18 through Jan. 1, 2017 (except Thanksgiving and Christmas). Admission is free. The Mid-Atlantic Center for the Arts & Humanities (MAC) is a multifaceted not-for-profit organization committed to promoting the preservation, interpretation, and cultural enrichment of the Cape May region for its residents and visitors. MAC membership is open to all.
