It has never been more important for residents of California to know the narrative of agriculture--a significant piece of Californian's Story.
The Great Dickens Christmas Fair & Victorian Holiday Party
Discover Victorian London at Christmas-time--magically brought to life inside the historic Cow Palace Exhibition Halls! Three acres of winding lanes immerse you in a world of music halls, theaters, pubs, dance parties, and charming shops that overflow with handmade holiday treasures. With the aroma of roasted chestnuts in the air, this lamp-lit city brims with holiday revelry and colorful characters from the imagination of Charles Dickens, the pages of history, and the sometimes saucy world of the Victorian stage.
