Join the Sam Bell Maxey House for Easter activities at the site during the “Easter Egg Scramble at the Maxey House” on Saturday, March 30. There will be two separate sessions to choose from: the first at 10:00 to 11:00 a.m. and the second at 2:00 to 3:00 p.m. Visitors will have the opportunity to participate in an egg hunt, or “scramble”, on the grounds followed by Easter-themed crafts, and the classic Victorian optical illusion toy, thaumatropes. Yard games will also be available for play throughout the event. Site staff advise that visitors arrive early for the egg hunt. 

This free event is open to children of all ages. For more information, feel free to contact Elana at 903-647-6553 or elana.barton@thc.texas.gov.
