At 10:30am we will have a youth workshop on Creating a Mystery and at 12:00pm we will have a youth workshop on Theater & Storytelling. Both of these workshops are free, open to ages 8 and up, and will last about an hour.
Live History will also have two interactive performances of A Timeless Gathering for all ages at 3:00pm and 5:00pm. A Timeless Gathering is part escape room and part live theater and participants will work together to try and discover the identity of our mysterious guest.

"Timeless Gathering":
It was supposed to be a relaxing evening; a sit down meal, followed by good conversation and a speaker—but things are not as they seem. Joining you at the table is a strange figure, dressed in period clothes and seeming confused. The mysterious character, identifying only as Circa, is horrified to discover they are in the modern era, and many things they remember and love are now behind glass; on shelves; written about in history books. They have no recollection of who they are, or how they got there. Some sort of historical time warp has occurred and you cannot leave unless you help . The security guard of the venue is in a complete panic—the doors have locked before, and the only way to get out is to solve the mystery.
Only pictures, items and stories from a time long ago seem to trigger memories about their identity. Stay with Circa for anecdotes from their life as they come flooding back, and piece together clues and riddles to figure out their identity...before the doors stay locked forever.
