This year the Ice Cream Social will take place on Sunday, August 18 from 10 am – 5 pm. This social gathering celebrates a time when the days passed at a slower pace and the local community came together to enjoy the lazy days of summer.

This year will feature a performance by Ballet Folklorico from 12 - 1 pm. The 2 pm Living History performance will be Judge William Langford. Born in Ohio in 1835 Langford later came to Oregon to study law. He was the last territorial justice of the Washington Territorial Supreme Court to serve in Walla Walla County.

There will be food available to purchase from Scobie’s Dogs & Grilled Brats, the hot dog cart at Land Title Plaza downtown at lunch time.

A few classic cars will be parked on the grounds from the Walla Walla Historical Auto Club and Walla Walla Cruisers Car Club, so come check out their sweet rides!

There will be dress-up photobooth, a bouncy castle, a special prison escape scavenger hunt, and a scoop of vanilla Baskin Robbins ice cream and Klicker’s strawberry topping with paid admission. Come bring your friends and family to the museum for the sweetest event of the summer! 

Ice Cream Social is generously supported by Chervenell Construction Co. and Columbia REA, with support from Jumpin’ Jelly Beans, Klicker’s Berries & Antiques, and Baskin Robbins.
