Calling all aspiring weavers! This program introduces kids to the timeless craft of textiles. With wool, linen and hemp, the Mabees could weave the many fabrics that adorned themselves and their home. We’ll explore all these materials and the historic tools used to process them. We’ll weave our own bookmarks to take home.
Join your hosts, Buffy Leonard and Chris Leonard, on a tasting and history tour of their favorite wines from women winemakers!
In this tour, we try to see the Mabee Farm as enslaved people would have known it, and to understand the painful, dehumanizing experiences of hundreds of other enslaved people in Schenectady’s history.
Reese Fulmer & The Carriage House Band have become one of the fastest-rising groups in upstate NY with expansive live albums highlighting a reputation for compelling performances. With a rotating cast of talented players, a broad and dynamic body of work, and a refusal to set anything in stone, their shows are always fresh, full of joy, and hard to describe.
This FREE family festival will feature live music and fireworks!
The Mabee Farm will be open just for kids! Tour the entirety of our farm with special demonstrations of colonial crafts. Our fields are almost ready for harvesting and we’ll need your help! Butter making, barn-building and meeting the farm animals are just some of the other activities available.
Join us for an evening stroll past Schenectady mansions and learn about the influential families who shaped the area during this transformative era.
Make a practical, personalized broom and learn a new skill!
