Explore the rich stories of Harpers Ferry during our History on Tap series. Step into the inviting ambiance of Alstadts Ale House and immerse yourself in engaging discussions on a range of fascinating history.John Brown's fierce commitment to the abolitionist cause culminated in the October 1859 raid on the Federal armory at Harpers Ferry. In this program, we will explore the lesser-known yet equally compelling stories of the extraordinary lives led by women who, in many ways, were the most ordinary of individuals, contending with chronic poverty and lives that were quite typical for poor, rural 19th-century women. Join us to uncover the depth of these women's involvement in Brown’s cause and their crucial roles in preserving and transforming his legacy after his death.
Enjoy delicious food, handcrafted cocktails, and a selection of beer and wine available for purchase. Come for the history, stay for the camaraderie, and leave with a deeper appreciation of Harpers Ferry’s place in the nation's story.
