Flannel Festival Brings Pioneer History

Port Sanilac is stepping back in time September 19–20 with the Sanilac Museum’s Flannel Festival. Families can explore 18th- and 19th-century pioneer life, including fur-trade camps and logging demonstrations. Visitors will see blacksmithing, chainsaw milling, period crafts, and flintlock musket shows. Live music, history lectures, yard games, and a farmers market add to the fun. Evening events include an open mic, main concert, and a cash bar featuring local Flannel Mouth Hard Cider. Admission is free with flannel; donations support local history.
