Civil War Weekend – The Great Central Sanitary Fair of 2024
During the Civil War, the US Sanitary Commission organized large fairs to raise funds for soldiers’ aid, including the Great Central Sanitary Fair in Philadelphia. To mark the 160th anniversary of this major event, the Peter Wentz Farmstead will be hosting our own version of the fair. The original Sanitary Fair featured 200,000 square feet of vendors showing off anything from fine art to industrial displays.
