Bowne House is part of the Path Through History Weekend Lineup

In celebration of Juneteenth, Bowne House will be offering guided tours inspired by the enduring legacy of abolition and anti-slavery activism in Flushing and beyond.

Topics will include anti-slavery activities of Long Island Quakers in the New York Meeting during the Revolutionary Era; Bowne-Parsons family members’ participation in a network of the Underground Railroad; and other abolition, education, and fundraising efforts related to the Bowne family. Visitors will also be able to view copies of original documents from the Bowne House Archives, collection items not usually on display, and more!
