The members of Oliver Miller Homestead want to thank all of our previous guests and welcome new guests by inviting them to our May 5 "Visitor’s Appreciation Day" when admission is free.
Our members will be dressed in 18th century clothing and will be highlighted in areas around the site featuring all of our special events for the upcoming season. Members will also share their histories as part of the Homestead and the ways in which they became involved. All of our buildings will be open and staffed.
The Trading Post, which is located in the barn, will be open for business with books, trade goods, and items made at the Homestead available for sale.
Watch as live sheep will be sheared the old fashioned way on Sunday, May 19 at the Oliver Miller Homestead. Our members will explain the complex process of turning the fleece into cloth. The wool will be teased, carded and spun into yarn. The weaver will be at his loom working the yarn into cloth. Spinners will explain the dyeing processes.
The Oliver Miller Homestead is located on Stone Manse Drive, just off the circle on Corrigan Drive in South Park. It is open each Sunday from May 5 through December 8, from 1:30 until 4:30, with the last admission at 4:00 p.m.. Admission on Special Event Days is $2 while on non event days an admission of $1 is requested. For more information, visit the website at www.olivermiller.org or phone 412-835-1554.
