Very interesting. The docent was very knowledgeable. Learned so much about a place where I used to live. E.g. - had no idea Herman Melville, who authored Moby Dick, lived there, too!
Love LHS and their special events! The topics (of the reenactments, parties, fundraisers, workshops, speakers, local trips...) are educational, interesting and always mixed with a bit of humor (and refreshments). They are such a dedicated group. Be sure to check out their website/newsletter for the activity schedules. The Spring home and garden tours are wonderful & a welcoming community event, featuring historic homes, friendly conversations and history tidbits. Keep up the great work. I hope you plan a fun featured Halloween activity, this year, as you did about 4 years ago.
Very knowledgeable folks here, visited as part of a historical home tour of Lansingburgh. Plenty to look at and learn about at the Melville house. Good for older children and adults.
I didnt know about this museum. Beautiful hidden gem.
Had a wonderful experience with the story tellers.
Top notch local history presented by friendly volunteers. Home of Herman Melville (Moby Dick)
Located in the house where Herman Melville settled after five years at sea and wrote two novels, Omoo and Typee.
A neat collection but sorta hard to view. Cluttered and mixed with mellville house which is confusing.
