The holiday season kicks off with one of Bethlehem’s favorite traditions: the 23rd Annual Turkey Trot 5K and Fun Walk, returning Saturday, Nov. 29, at 9 a.m. Presented by Physical Therapy at St. Luke’s, the event draws hundreds of runners, joggers, walkers, and families to the city’s Historic District in support of Historic Bethlehem Museums & Sites.
Historic Bethlehem Museums & Sites will open “Working Hands: Supplying a Revolution” on Oct. 3 at the 1869 Luckenbach Mill, 459 Old York Road in Bethlehem, Pa. The exhibition examines how the Moravian community balanced pacifist beliefs with mounting pressure to support patriot forces during the American Revolution.
The restored 1782/1834 Grist Miller’s House in Bethlehem’s Colonial Industrial Quarter has been honored with a Preservation Pennsylvania 2025 Historic Preservation Award. The Construction Award for Rehabilitation Projects will be presented to Historic Bethlehem Museums & Sites (HBMS) and its construction partners on October 16 at the Carrie Blast Furnaces in Pittsburgh.
