Candlelight Open House at Ephrata Cloister

Now that everyone has come “over the river and through the woods” why not take a leisurely stroll through the candlelit grounds of the historic Ephrata Cloister?  Visit with friends and family to discover the sights, sounds and crafts of the past and present in a relaxed evening under the stars.  Meet local craftsmen keeping the tradition of handmade art alive. Maybe do a little Christmas shopping in our Museum Store, which features unique gifts for everyone on your list.    Enjoy the music of the Ephrata Cloister Chorus.  Get a sneak peak at the popular Lantern Tours.  Enjoy light refreshments as a simple evening unfolds away from the rush of the coming season.
