Culeper’s Christmas Past
Today, for many Christmas is a commercialized frenzy. The holiday sales have turned into an event all their own with Black Friday, Small Business Saturday, and Cyber Monday. In 1931, in the midst of the Great Depression, Culpeper celebrated Christmas in a more subdued fashion but still filled with familiar traditions. Join us as Karen Quaintance and Christine Wuebker talk about how the Great Depression impacted Christmas in Culpeper and what local merchants did to try and keep the season full of hope and joy.
