Celebrate Black History Month with art

Enjoy a Hands on History workshop at King Manor Museum on Feb. 6.

What better way to celebrate Black History Month than a fascinating workshop on African-American painters? You can also reconstruct 19th-Century works of art into modern-day collages. After the craft activity, tour the museum to learn about early abolitionists Rufus King and John Alsop King.

Hands on History, Feb. 6 from 1 to 4 pm. Free.
