Salem Saturdays

This series of hands-on workshops is for history lovers, gardeners, cooks, and crafters alike!

Schoolgirls in Moravian towns learned botany skills through natural history and still-life painting. Explore the art and botanical work of notable Moravian women in the 1800s.

Join the Old Salem metalworkers to create your own pewter spoon. Pewter was a common material for dining ware in the 18th century.
Come participate in the magic of casting and learn the skills of finishing fine pewterware, just like the residents of Salem in the 1700s. Participants will use traditional tools and methods to create their very own keepsake pewter spoon to take home!
