Presidents George Washington and Franklin Delano Roosevelt both visited Philipse Manor Hall, and this Presidents’ Day you can do the same!

Philipse Manor Hall State Historic Site will hold its annual Presidents’ Day celebration on Saturday, February 15, 2014 at Philipse Manor Hall, from 12 p.m. to 4 p.m.

            The program will include a presidential quiz, scavenger hunt, mock election, and hourly storytimes.  Celebrate Abraham Lincoln’s 205^th Birthday with candle making from 12 – 2 pm and a birthday cake at 2 pm. To further commemorate the day, Lincoln will recite The Gettysburg Address at 2:30 and meet visitors later in the afternoon. Throughout the day, visitors will have a chance to make their own set of George Washington’s famous false teeth and draw portraits of presidents like the ones hanging in the museum.
