Sarpy County Museum to Host Annual Christmas Open House

Join the Sarpy County Museum on Sunday, December 3rd from 2 – 4 p.m. for the annual Christmas Open House. Over 25 nativity sets from around the world and a dozen Christmas trees will be on display. This year’s celebration will highlight over a dozen trees decorated by nonprofit organizations, communities, and clubs throughout the county. This event is part of Bellevue’s Olde Town Christmas.

During the open house, there will be a raffle of door prizes and the highly-anticipated drawing for the winner of the 2017 Raffle Quilt. This King Size quilt, donated by Charlene Gustin, was hand stitched and appliquéd by an Amish community in Lancaster, Pennsylvania. Tickets will be available up until the drawing for all raffle prizes.

The museum invites the public in to see some beautiful Christmas trees, eat some holiday treats, and enjoy walking through the museum while the Gross Catholic Honor Choir performs festive a cappella selections and carols. This is a terrific way to kick off the holiday season!
