The Oldham County History Center (OCHC) invites the community to two opportunities to create a handmade live wreath with expert guidance. Led by Floral Designer Stephanie Clark Weir of Blue Ribbon Blooms, the workshops are hands-on opportunities to enjoy some holiday cheer.

Both workshops will be on Saturday mornings from 10:30am-12:30pm, and cost $85 per person. The workshop gives participants everything they need to design and build a fresh wreath for their own door or to give as a gift.

Start Your Light Up LaGrange Day

Participants can kick off a festive day with a wreath-making workshop on Saturday, December 5, 2026, at 106 N Second Ave, LaGrange KY from 10:30am-12:30pm. Held during the early part of the Light Up LaGrange celebrations, before the parade, the crowds, and the festivities that continue after dark. Guests can spend a calm morning creating something with their hands, then head out to enjoy the parade and the evening lights and entertainment. The Oldham County History Center is located just steps away from the Courthouse Lawn and Main Street parade route.

Enhance your Pioneer Christmas Experience

Participants to the December 12 th workshop will join the Oldham County History Center in Goshen at the Historic White Oak Point Farm to kick off a new event, “Pioneer Christmas.” The second workshop is located at 6709 W Hwy 42, Goshen, Kentucky, from 10:30am-12:30pm.

Pioneer Christmas includes guided historic farmhouse tours, complimentary make-and-take wooden ornaments, live music, Santa, honey tasting, baked goods, and hot coffee and cider. The event runs Saturday, December 12, from 10:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m., so wreath workshop participants will have time following their workshop to enjoy Pioneer Christmas festivities.

What to Expect
