Parisian Style Schuylers: French Day at the Mansion
April 5 @ 9:00 am - 2:00 pm
FreeOn Friday, April 5th, 2024, Schuyler Mansion State Historic Site will host a single day program for children aged 8-14.
Join us for Parisian Style Schuylers: French Day at the Mansion, during which kids will immerse themselves in 18th century French culture and history in Schuyler style. The Schuylers hosted many French guests and were adamant consumers of French culture, even hosting a family seeking refuge during the French Revolution. Kids will learn about the connections between the Schuylers and the French and will get to make a French-inspired 18th century craft, learn a few key French phrases, and more.
The program runs from 9AM to 2PM. Food is not provided, but there will be a lunch break for the kids to eat lunches brought from home. The program is free of charge, but kids must be signed up by a guardian ahead of time. Spaces can be reserved by calling 518-434-0834 and speaking with a staff member. Please note that space is limited to fifteen participants.
Schuyler Mansion is located at 32 Catherine Street in Albany’s historic South End. For information about this or other site events, please call (518) 434-0834, visit https://parks.ny.gov/historic-sites/33/details.aspx or find us on Facebook.
