The Friends of the Eric Sloane Museum will offer a unique opportunity to experience a private after-hours tour of the museum’s collection and art gallery. Patrons will discover local craft refreshments, along with hors d’oeuvres, as the group explore some of the museum’s hidden gems in a fun and relaxed atmosphere.

Author, historian and art specialist Wil Mauch will provide a deeper insight into the art collection, while museum curator Andrew Rowand takes visitors behind the scenes of the museum. There will also be time for socializing, asking questions and personal exploration. 

There will also be a silent auction.
