As the holiday season approaches, many families are looking for new and unique ways to capture their cherished memories. This year, the Sterling Heights Public Library has teamed up with the Historical Commission to offer a special photo opportunity at the Upton House Museum.

On Sunday, November 10th from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m., individuals and families are invited to step back in time and experience the festive Victorian setting of the Upton House Museum. According to Tammy Turgeon, director of the Sterling Heights Public Library and staff liaison for the Historical Commission, this event is a wonderful way to connect with the city's rich history while creating lasting memories with loved ones.

For a charitable donation of just $10, participants can immerse themselves in the holiday spirit and take home their very own Christmas card photo. The Upton House Museum will be beautifully decorated for the occasion, providing a stunning backdrop for photos.
