(above) Christmas 2022 arrived early for the Kenilworth Historical Society, when Richard Pinto, president of the Fraternal Order of Police (Lodge No. 74 Inc.), came to the Oswald J. Nitschke House on December 4 to present a generous $500 donation check to benefit the operation and preservation of the c. 1880 site, which serves the general public as Kenilworth’s “living history” museum and cultural arts center.

Nearly 200 children and adults of all ages attended a December 4, 2022, Holiday Celebration and “Old-Fashioned Christmas” at the Oswald J. Nitschke House “living history” museum and cultural arts center, which offered opportunities to take photos with Santa (from Victorian times), tour the c. 1880 home authentically decorated for the holidays, visit the site’s multicultural Christkindlmarkt and enjoy favorite holiday tunes sung by the Christmas Matters Holiday Carolers. The festive event was presented by the Kenilworth Historical Society, and the carolers’ performance was generously sponsored by the Kenilworth Education Association’s F.A.S.T. Committee.
