Frances Carnahan, editor and
publisher of Early American Life
said, “The exhibition represents
the skills and creativity of more
than 100 of the most talented arti

There will be things made by
hand, sometimes with authentic
tools, and reproductions so skill
fully executed that it is difficult to
tell them from the originals.

largest museum highlighting
Pennsylvania German rural heri
tage. Set amidst a rural landscape,
the complex includes numerous
historical buildings ranging from
bams and a tavern to smokehouses
and craft shops.
Some of the buildings have
