Memories of Christmas Past in Youngstown revisits the best holiday memories from your childhood. This annual holiday spectacular at the Arms Family Museum features breath-taking vignettes and vintage Christmas decor from the 1800s through the 1960s. It fills seven rooms of the 1095 Arts & Crafts mansion of Olive and Wilford Arms.
This one-of-a-kind winter wonderland rivals the best of the professional holiday displays as seen in New York City, Chicago, and Atlanta. Exquisitely arranged, the vintage decor on display includes toys, trains, ornaments, lights, trees, and more. Every year visitors say how much the vignettes bring back their best nostalgic childhood memories.
Visitors on the self-guided tour are welcome to make multiple passes through the period rooms. The Christmas Hands-On History Room will feel like walking into Santa’s Workshop at the North Pole, with elves, reindeer games and even a naughty and nice list. Special events are scheduled throughout the run of the exhibit which will include a model train display, behind the ropes tours and author visits.
