Old Home Day
Location: Historic Richmondtown, 441 Clarke Ave, Staten Island, NY 10306
Start Time:11:00am

Battle of Brooklyn Chapter SAR

Historic Richmond Town's annual festival of living history and cultural heritage, Old Home Day, showcases the traditions of the past and the diversity of Staten Island today. Demonstrations of historic trades are featured in open buildings throughout the village campus. Fresh apple cider is pressed behind the tavern, along with warm soup made over an open flame and fresh bread baked in the 1820s kitchen of the Guyon-Lake-Tysen House. Live performances of historical music echo from the taproom of the tavern, and the crack of muskets resounds from the village fields. Living historians at the Native Encampment and the Voorlezer's House interpret the interactions and conflicts between the Lenape and Dutch settlers of the 16th century.
