Join us Saturday October 18th for Heritage Day, a public historical program in northeastern Lancaster County. Since 2019 Heritage Day explores the 300-year history of northeastern Lancaster and southwestern Berks life from the 1740s early frontier days to the late 19th century.
Interactive Encampments, Contests, Demonstrators, Craftsmen,
Adult & Children's Activities, & much more!
Pathways Heritage Day is an effort put together by the students, staff and parents of Pathways
hybrid-learning community as well as 300+ demonstrators, artisans and craftsmen.
Pathways started with a small group of like-minded individuals who desired an alternative
way to teach and learn. We wanted to develop a model that utilized project-based learning
with an emphasis on environmental stewardship and living history.
All proceeds support grades 3-12. Pathways is a 501(C)(3) non-profit organization
