HAHS Slates Summer Show

The Hummelstown Area Historical Society (HAHS) is staging "All Lit Up" as its 2019 summer show. The exhibit is on display in the History House, 32 W. Main St., Hummelstown.

"All Lit Up" is a nostalgic look at lamps used as lighting in Hummelstown-area households. There are more than 20 exhibits, each of which demonstrates a category of lamps, such children's lamps, coal oil lights, early American lights and cabin lighting. Some lights are from private collections, while others are finds from auctions and yard sales. Many of the lights are available for purchase by silent auction.

Show days and times are Wednesdays in July and August from 3 to 5 p.m., Saturdays in July from 2 to 4 p.m., and Sundays in August from 2 to 4 p.m. There is no charge for admission, but freewill donations are accepted to defray expenses. For more information or to schedule a special group tour, readers may call Josie Downey at 717-566-6314 or Wade Seibert at 717-919-0509.
