Life in the Past Lane: History Along the Highways of NYS

Life in the Past Lane: History Along the Highways of NYS In-Person

When you’re on a road trip, history is always around the bend.  Be open to learning about the Empire State with a spin on a carousel or two.  Step into the 1800s to explore the history of the Erie Canal’s development and its engineering marvels. Lisa Wemett and Terry Mulee are your tour guides, highlighting the sites that tell the story of this national historic landmark, its influence on the development of cities and the women’s rights movement, and the 20th century luminaries who followed the suffragettes.
