In honor of its 50th Anniversary, the New York Landmarks Conservancy has launched the 50 at 50 Online Exhibition. This exhibition highlights 50 historic sites across New York City that the Conservancy has helped to preserve and protect, including the Bowne House Historical Society & Museum.

To celebrate our participation in this wonderful anniversary, Bowne House and the Flushing Friends Meeting House are partnering to host a FREE joint, in-person event on Sunday, June 11th from 11:30am to 3:00pm. This event will include a presentation about the Bowne House Archives by the museum’s archivist, Charlotte Jackson, self-guided tours of the Bowne House, and tours of the Flushing Friends Meeting House. Plus, visitors can enjoy refreshments and a children’s craft station in the Bowne House garden.
