HSRC Bus Trip: New-York Historical Society

The Historical Society of Rockland County invites you to join us on a day trip to visit the New-York Historical Society.

Date: Saturday, February 7, 2015

Time: Leaves the Historical Society at 9:00 am and returns at 4:15 pm

Cost: HSRC Members, $99 per person; non-members, $109 per person. Includes bus transportation, docent guided tour, a delicious luncheon and an all-museum pass.

Leave the driving (and parking) to us! Join us as we visit the New-York Historical Society. First, guests will enjoy a docent-guided tour of “Annie Leibovitz: Pilgrimage,” which charts a new direction for one of America’s best-known living photographers. (Please note that the Leibovitz exhibition will close on February 22.) After lunch, enjoy a self-guided tour of “Chinese American: Exclusion/Inclusion,” an exhibition that explores the centuries-long history of trade and immigration between China and the United States—a history that involved New York from its very beginnings—and raises the question, “What does it mean to be an American?”

The tour includes an all-museum pass. Guests are welcome to visit the rest of the museum at their own pace.

Space on this trip is limited. Pre-paid reservations are required. For information, go to https://www.rocklandhistory.org/event.cfm?page=393.
