Hay House has made its grand return of Christmas splendor this December. The historic house museum on Georgia Avenue is festively decorated and will be hosting a number of events this holiday season. Come explore the magic this winter as every room is decorated from top to bottom and is a feast for the eyes to see. Guests may see the decorated rooms during scheduled guided tours or at one of the museum’s seasonal events. Santa Day at Hay House is December 5th, from 10am-5pm, where families can sit with Santa Claus for a special professional photography session. Hay House will be hosting two Christmas Luncheons where guests can enjoy a tour and lunch on December 9th and 10th, from 11:30-2pm. Finally, the annual New Year’s Eve Ball will be held on December 31st where partygoers will journey back with us to the 1920s for an evening of Gatsby-era music, dancing and decadence, all to support the restoration and maintenance of historic Hay House!

"Lift your spirits and celebrate your holidays by visiting us at the amazing Hay House, Macon’s grandest historic house. The house has been beautifully decorated for the Season inside and out and from top to bottom by a group of the area’s foremost designers. The House is open to the public for guided tours from Wednesday through Friday each week, on the hour from 10 a.m. The final tour each day begins at 3 p.m. In addition, a wonderful series of special holiday events are planned,” said Hay House Director Ennis Willis.
