Grafton Village Holiday Festival

 

The Grafton History Museum gets in the holiday spirit along with the rest of our village for the Grafton Holiday Festival each year. Come to Grafton for traditional holiday activities, shopping, a visit from Santa for the little ones, and the amazing Dogs of Grafton parade – a holiday favorite. Be sure to stop by the Museum and enjoy some goodies while you take in our pop-up holiday display.

Returning in the holiday season 2026

Sugar on Snow Dinner

Banish the winter doldrums at our annual Sugar on Snow supper. Hot maple syrup is drizzled on pristine snow to chill into the most wonderful chewy maple candy, customarily eaten with pickles to offset the sticky goodness of the gooey maple sweets. Each winter we host our “Sugar on Snow” dinner at the community building (the “chapel”) of the Grafton Community Church, on Main Street in the village, in keeping with long Vermont small town traditions.

Enjoy a dinner of ham, scalloped potatoes, baked beans, and coleslaw, followed by this wonderfully sweet and classic Vermont winter treat. Check back late next fall for the 2027 date!

 

Next Annual Meeting
August 2027

All are welcome at the Grafton Historical Society Annual Meeting, held every August. The election of board members and officers is followed by a featured speaker and refreshments.

This past year we welcomed Malcolm Summers of the Chester Bookworm to speak about about his work in restoring some of our very old ledgers. Information on 2027 to come!
