Years from now, Schenectadians will look back and wonder, “how did the COVID-19 pandemic affect Schenectady County? How did our ancestors respond to the crisis?” "What was life like for people quarantined, for months?"
While SCHS is closed during the COVID-19 pandemic, we invite you to view our online exhibitions.
A great night of toe-tapping Americana!
Every year, our members come together at the SCHS Annual Meeting to share their love of local history, and to help move SCHS forward. This year, we're doing things a little differently.
Starting out from Mohawk Harbor, we’ll paddle our way upstream to the Glen Sanders Mansion and back, passing under railroad bridges and around wild islands.
We'll relive the remarkable stories of the first generations of Schenectadians.
