Join us on Saturday, May 2nd from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. as the Rising Sun Tavern hosts a lively birthday celebration honoring Charles Washington, the younger brother of George Washington, and former owner of the house at 1304 Caroline Street. Enjoy complimentary guided tours, share a slice of birthday cake (while it lasts) and let kids dive into 18th-century garden games with the Rappahannock Colonial Heritage Society.
Bring a lawn chair or blanket and gather in the courtyard for a concert by Colonial Faire, performing 18th-century music that brings the colonial era to life (concert time to be announced). Explore the tavern, learn local history, and soak up the festive atmosphere in one of Fredericksburg’s most historic settings!
