SUMMARY:Lunch & Learn: Too Good to Get Married
DESCRIPTION:Join Bonnie Yochelson as she discusses her new book\, Too Good to Get Married: The Life and Photographs of Miss Alice Austen. \n\n\n\nAlice Austen was an amateur photographer known for documenting Victorian society life on Staten Island. Austen became known for a group of humorous photographs in which she and her friends challenged gender norms— “smoking” cigarettes\, feigning drunkenness\, and dressing in men’s clothing—and for “Street Types of New York\,” a portfolio depicting people who worked on Manhattan’s streets. Since then\, her former home has become a museum\, and she is celebrated as a photographer and an LGBTQ+ icon. \n\n\n\nDiscover what inspired Yochelson to write about Alice Austen\, how Austen challenged and conformed to the ideals of Staten Island society\, and the historical significance of her photography. \n\n\n\nThis is an online (Zoom) event. Admission is free and registration is required. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nShare:

SUMMARY:Meet the Women of Revolutionary Westchester
DESCRIPTION:During the Revolutionary War\, Westchester County was known as “The Neutral Zone\,” a war-torn area where ordinary people struggled to get by while armies\, militias\, and vigilantes clashed in their backyards. The war was especially hard for women on both sides of the conflict. Join us for this special outdoor living history family day. Interact with the women of revolutionary Westchester\, from those doing ordinary tasks like spinning\, weaving\, and cooking\, to camp followers caring for the troops with herbal medicines\, to women who joined the military in disguise. In the outdoor tent experience the performances of Peggy Shippen\, who was married to traitor Benedict Arnold\, wealthy loyalist Mary Philipse\, an enslaved and then manumitted woman named Liss\, and Phoebe Ward\, who was a mother caught between two armies. History At Play’s award-winning performance\, A Revolution of her Own! explores the life of Continental soldier Deborah Sampson. Learn more from area cultural and heritage organizations highlighting the histories of diverse women with connections to revolutionary Westchester County. Enjoy live period music\, dancing\, 18th century hands-on crafting and demonstrations\, period games\, and more as you mingle and converse with the costumed performers. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nShare:
