Fundraiser Nov 16 for the Bronck Museum

COXSACKIE — Join the Greene County Historical Society for an afternoon of community, history, music, food and drinks as we raise funds to help preserve and protect the architectural heritage of the Bronck Museum. A designated National Historic Landmark, the Bronck Museum features ten major structures that showcase over 350 years of architectural history. At its heart is Pieter Bronck’s stone house, built in 1663—believed to be the oldest surviving home in upstate New York.

The fundraising party will be held at The Wire Event Center located at 60 South River Street in Coxsackie on Sunday, November 16, 2025 from 1pm - 5pm. Greene County Historian Jonathan Palmer will deliver introductory remarks in a short program featuring friends in the local history community. There will be music from Running the River and local musician Luke Barnhart, historical re-enactors, raffles, an assortment of lunch fare and hors d’oeuvres and cash bar. The cost is $75 per person. To purchase tickets visit gchistory.org/fundraiser-party. To pay by check, please make it payable to GCHS and mail it to: P.O. Box 44, Coxsackie, NY 12051.
