No needles necessary! This family-friendly workshop is a perfect introduction for kids to the craft of felting. We’ll start with an introduction to our sheep, as well as discuss the process of cleaning and carding their wool. Then we’ll get to work, wet-felting a cute farm animal that you can take home! This program is open to anyone 5 and over. All participants, including parent/guardian, need a ticket.

The Stockade comes to life on this behind-the-scenes journey through the neighborhood. A national historic district, the Stockade is alive with the sights and sounds of a vibrant, ever-changing neighborhood. Walk its storied streets, meet local characters, and learn its legends and lore as we journey across history. Tickets are $15, include museum admission, a guided neighborhood tour, exclusive access to two Stockade homes and gardens, and then refreshments back at SCHS. This tour lasts approximately two hours, and involves about 1 mile of walking on sometimes uneven sidewalks. It meets at the Schenectady Historical Museum at 32 Washington Ave, Schenectady NY 12305. Parking is available in the YWCA lot next door, or on the street. **All ticket sales are final. We cannot offer refunds or date exchanges if your plans change.**
