Miller-Cory to Present Broom Making Sunday

WESTFIELD — Did you know that the inventory for the Miller-Cory House from 1802 includes 31 brooms? Brooms could be made by the broom maker, or a simpler version could be made by the homeowner.

Visitors are invited to the Miller-Cory House Museum this Sunday, April 28, between 2 and 4 p.m., for “Broom Making in Early America.”

Attendees will learn how brooms were made, from the garden to the finished product, and see some examples of colonial brooms. The fullyfurnished, circa 1740 farmhouse also will be open for viewing, and museum cooks will demonstrate 18thcentury open-hearth cooking.

Admission is $5 for adults and children age 13 and older, $4 for children ages 3 to 12, and free for those under age 3. No reservations are necessary.
