The Cedar Hill Schoolhouse Museum, home of the Bethlehem Historical Association, is open Sunday afternoons from 2 to 4 PM beginning May 2.
Come explore how transportation formed Bethlehem history with Rivers, Roads & Rails. Step into an early classroom and see how our formal education system developed. Go Around the Mulberry Bush with early 20th c. housewives as they go about their weekly chores. Get acquainted with the Wilke family who farmed on Beaver Dam Road. Learn about events that took place right here in Bethlehem during the fight for the right of women to vote. Enjoy a new scavenger hunt to lead you through the various exhibits.
Covid-19 precautions are in place. Face coverings are required at all times on the property. Only ten people will be allowed inside the schoolhouse at one time and you must complete a brief contact tracing form. High touch surfaces will be sanitized on a regular basis.
