Come to Van Cortlandt House Museum this February and embark on an adventure back in time as we salute General George Washington at our Adventures in Time Winter Break Mini-Camp. Your child will learn about the Van Cortlandt family as we celebrate all things George.

Children will travel in time back to the early years of the Revolutionary War and experience the life of a soldier in General George Washington’s army. They will craft a paper cocked hat and sign enlistment papers into the army using a quill pen and ink. Outdoor activities such as military drill, and reconnaissance, are also part of the action depending on the weather. We’ll study Washington’s Rules of Civility and hold a festive birthday celebration for the General.

Camp is lead by Van Cortlandt House Museum’s professional staff and talented living history volunteers. Daily activities for Adventures in Time Winter Break Mini-Camp are designed in keeping with New York State 4th grade curriculum standards and are appropriate for children ages 6 - 12.

Winter Break Mini-Camp is open to all children with a sense of adventure who will complete 2nd, 3rd, 4th or 5th grade (or the equivalent) in June of 2012.

The Merchant’s House Museum celebrates St. Patrick’s Day with the reopening of its newly restored 4th floor Servants Quarters, home to the Tredwell family’s four Irish servants and “arguably the oldest intact site of Irish inhabitation in New York City” (Time Out New York). You are invited to come climb the narrow staircase and see where the servants lived and did some of their work. In addition to substantial structural repairs, the Servants Quarters also underwent a comprehensive paint analysis and is the first space in the house to be repainted in its authentic 1850s colors.
