LIVE DAY | Hearts & Crafts

Howick Historical Village Pakuranga, Auckland from Howick Historical Village

Love and romance abound in the Victorian tradition 💐✨

Step back in time and discover the charm of a 19th-century Valentine’s Day. Uncover the secret language of flowers, fans, handkerchiefs and letters, monogram your own hanky, and create a scented lavender sachet for someone special. Wander the picturesque streets as artists paint en plein air, then visit the old-fashioned Sweet Shop for treats for your sweet 🍬

Try your hand at churning cream into butter, attend a Victorian school lesson, and enjoy live demonstrations of blacksmithing and bookbinding throughout the day. Be entertained by Morris dancers at 10:30am & 11:30am, and a stirring bagpipe band performance at 12pm 🎶

Enjoy lunch at the Homestead Café or bring a picnic and relax in the beautiful grounds. Make a day of it at Howick Historical Village ❤️
