Sunday, July 13th 12 PM - 4 PM
Join us for a FREE, family-friendly day of music, mystery, and Revolutionary intrigue on the Van Cortlandt House Lawn! Includes a performance of "This Man’s a Spy!," a live musical by Carla & Keyes about Benedict Arnold’s infamous plot to sell the plans to West Point to the British during the American Revolution. Before and after the show, kids can take on a secret mission with spy-themed crafts, games, and activities inspired by Revolutionary War espionage. Visitors are welcome to come in disguise—if they dare! This event is FREE. Registration is suggested but not required. RSVP here. |
