Clang, clang, goes the trolly

Time seems to stand still at the Bartow-Pell Mansion Museum. And now that it’s officially spring, you can take a trolley back to the past at the beautiful Pelham Bay Park space as its First Friday! excursions are back in business.

On May 2, tour the mansion, stroll the garden, savor light refreshments, and hop on the free Bronx Seaside Trolley for a ride to City Island.

You can further enjoy the magic of the mansion at night with the help of music and savor the evening air.
