Wine and Walk: Beyond the Pines
Location
About
Join us for a colonial-era walking tour that takes us back to a land you may know but a world that's unrecognizable. In 1661, Schenectady was founded at the frontier of the colonial world and sat at the crossroads of many competing empires. This tiny town was caught in a delicate balance as various European and Native American powers jostled for control of this area. In this tour we’ll explore the earliest years of our city’s history leading up to the disastrous night in 1690 when it was utterly destroyed. Come see how our city's story began!
After the tour, stick around for a complimentary glass of wine at the SCHS Museum.
This tour meets and concludes at SCHS, 32 Washington Ave, Schenectady.
All ticket sales are final.
