Decoration of Historical Homes & Buildings
Decoration of historical homes and buildings began in 2016 when The Garden Club of York decorated the Butler’s Pantry of the Ladew Manor House in Monkton, MD. In 2017 the marble hallway of the Ladew Manor House was decorated. The next year Mr. Ladew’s office was decorated. In 2019 the committee decorated the main hallway and front hallway of the Ladew Manor House. Due to COVID the committee was unable to decorate the Ladew Manor House in 2020 and 2021.
Since the Ladew Manor House couldn’t be decorated in 2020 the committee choose to decorate the outside of the Children’s Advocacy Center in downtown York. In 2021 the committee decorated the William Goodrich Freedom Center and Underground Railroad Museum in downtown York. In 2022 the committee was again able to decorate the Ladew Manor House. The drawing room was decorated by the committee. Also, in 2022 the committee decorated the William Goodrich Freedom Center and four fire houses in downtown York.
