Old Economy Village in Ambridge, Pa. will be offering two Home School Days this spring. The first one will be on Wednesday, April 24 from 1:30 p.m. until 3:30 p.m. The second one will be Friday, April 26 from 1:30 p.m. until 3:30 p.m.
This event will allow home school families to explore the Village at a special educational rate of $5 per child, parent, or guardian. Students will get a chance to visit the buildings, try some hands-on activities, see demonstrations, and learn about life in the 1830s. Old Economy Village was founded in 1824 by a German pietistic Christian communal society called the Harmonists. They built their town 17 miles north of Pittsburgh on the Ohio River in what today is known as Ambridge.
