Museum Monday Series at Schoharie Crossing

FORT HUNTER – Schoharie Crossing State Historic Site is excited to host the 2026 series of “Museum Mondays” over the winter to give insights into objects in our Pathway to Empire exhibit.  These informal presentations will discuss a range of topics directly connected to artifacts on display and the history of the historic site. The Visitor Center doors will be open on the first Monday of each month, from 11am to 1pm.  The themed discussion within the museum will begin at 11:30am.

Join us on February 2nd as we recognize the importance of the potato on National Tater Tot Day. Discover some interesting food history related to the canal and enjoy some tots as you check out our exhibit. On March 2nd, we’ll discuss Irish immigrants and Women along the canal. And we wrap up the series on April 6th, “celerybrating” a canal town connection to an underappreciated veggie during National Celery Month.

These programs are all free and open to the public. Heavy snow, icy conditions may cancel these events. Follow us on Facebook for updates or contact the site.
