CANCELLED – Decorative Arts Tour: Portraits at the Paca House

May 12, 2023 @ 5:00 pm - 6:00 pm

This event has been cancelled and will be rescheduled for a later date.


The walls of the William Paca House are full of fine portraits and engravings, each with their own story to tell. This one-hour, curator-led tour through the house will focus on many of the fine works present and pieces that would have been hung throughout the home during the 18th century. Visitors will learn more about the artists behind the works, as well as some fascinating mysteries that are yet to be solved.

Advance registration recommended; space is limited.

Cost: $25 General Admission; $20 for HA Members, Military, and HA Docents
