Fri, 16 Oct 2026 14:30:00 GMT

Join us for a lovely morning of art, nature, and local history right here in Chappaqua!

Friday, October 16th: 10:30 a.m.–12:30 p.m.
Meet at The Greeley House

We’ll begin with the New Castle Historical Society’s Botanicals & Birds exhibition, featuring local artist Sarah Wry’s detailed watercolors and graphite drawings of plants, fungi, and birds.

We’ll spend approximately 45 minutes exploring the exhibition with the artist Sarah Wry, who will share her creative process and inspirations as we enjoy her work.

Then we’ll head out on the 75-minute Greeley Farm Walking Tour, beginning on the front porch of Greeley House. Through ten stops, we’ll discover how Horace Greeley’s former 78-acre farm became much of the Chappaqua town center we know today, exploring the landscape, ecology, and family legacy that helped shape our community.

Afterward, anyone who would like to continue the conversation is welcome to join us for an optional lunch at Le Jardin du Roi, at your own expense.

Please wear comfortable walking shoes and dress for the weather. The tour path includes sidewalk, paved walkway and dirt trails with some uphill portions.

Cost: $5 per person, nonrefundable

Please RSVP by Wednesday, October 14.
