Learn local stories that you may not have heard before, and how they played into the founding of the United States. To commemorate the 250th Anniversary of the American Revolution (#Rev250), this exhibition marks part two of two at the PHM highlighting the importance of the Hudson Highlands during this historic period, featuring stories from 1779 through the end of the war. If you missed part one, don’t worry! This exhibition can also stand on its own.\nCommunity Room Opening: Homes of the Revolution\nExplore the houses that stood at the time of the Revolution in Putnam County. Deep dive into the histories of several homes that stood witness to the tumultuous years of the revolution, and learn how they can clue us in to the lived realities of the people from all walks of life who lived in the Hudson Highlands. \nAlso: First chance to see The Gun Foundry by John Ferguson Weir after it’s been conserved!\nThe work reccently done by professional conservator Nadia Ghannam has revealed a hidden depth and detail in this cornerstone of the PHM’s collection.
