Stir-Up Sunday! Free Family Activity, Gunnersbury Park Museum on Sunday 23rd November 2014 from 11:30 am
Join our Victorian servants as they prepare for the Christmas festivities! Traditionally, Christmas preparations would begin on the last Sunday before Advent, known as Stir–Up Sunday.
Our original Victorian kitchens will be decked with holly and ivy to put you in the Christmas spirit, and you can help the servants pound the sugar and spices, stir the plum pudding and make a Christmas wish! You might also discover a few Christmas traditions…
Why do we stir the pudding from East to West? Why do we put three spices into the mince pies? And who are the Lord and Lady of Misrule?
Three sessions: 11.30am - 12.30 noon, 1.00pm – 2.00pm. 2.30pm – 3.30pm. Advance booking essential.
