Upcoming Events
The John Wells Pratt House Museum is open for the season. This year the Friends of History in Fulton celebrates 45 years preserving and keeping Fulton’s rich history alive.
Also, back by popular demand, is the Fulton Chocolate Works Museum. All history gurus as well as chocolate lovers are invited to the Pratt House Museum again this year to enjoy the sweet memories of Nestle chocolate in the air. Two rooms on the first floor of the Pratt House are dedicated to the Fulton Chocolate Works Museum as part of this year’s exhibits.
Unique items on display include a contract Nestle made with a local dairy farmer for their milk back in 1902, a comic book that was put out about a kid who toured the chocolate plant in Fulton, tins, mugs, knickknacks, old packages, aerial photos, and much more. There are Nestle plant newspapers, including the first one from 1928, and a scrapbook with old newspaper clippings of advertisements and news items.

Check our site for the menu. - With such influences as The Beatles, James Taylor, Kris Kristofferson Paul Simon and Gordon Lightfoot, his music is all about the story. And the stories he tells are about his hopes, his dreams, his family and friends and most anything else he might come across during the course of the day. For the past 30 years he has been moonlighting as an executive at CBS Television, and is currently working on The Drew Barrymore Show.
He looks forward to bringing you an evening of his original songs mixed with timeless classics, and is very much looking forward to being be back at The Earlville Opera House.
