About this Event
We’re opening the doors of the Van Hoosen Farmhouse to host an informal afternoon hour. Guests get the chance to interact with artifacts and documents normally stored safely away in the collections room, while enjoying the ambiance of the 1840s Van Hoosen Farmhouse. This unique opportunity has limited seating. Tea and light snack will be served.
Letters from the Van Hoosens
During their lifetime, the Van Hoosen women penned hundreds of letters to their friends, family, colleagues and especially, each other. These letters contain stories of friendship, determination, and occasionally, scandal. In this program, we’ll explore the letters left behind in the Museum’s archives and uncover the stories they tell.
