Do you like historical fiction? Have you ever wanted to learn how to write historical fiction? This is your opportunity to not only learn how to write historical fiction, but to then try your hand at writing it in Schuyler Mansion! Join us at Schuyler Mansion for our adult historical fiction writing workshop on Saturday, October 26th, from 10AM to 1PM. The workshop is open to anyone aged 14 and older.
The workshop will feature a tour of Schuyler Mansion as well as immersive activities, such as handling reproduction objects and writing in one of the rooms of the mansion. Participants will also look at select original 19th century documents and learn how to incorporate a variety of these primary sources into a story.
Participants will explore the history of the 18th and 19th century Schuyler family, as well as the basics of writing historical fiction. There will be time to write in one of the mansion rooms and participants will receive a starter guide to the Schuylers to provide inspiration.
The program is $7 per person and spots are limited. Reservations are required, and must be made by calling and speaking with site staff. Call 518-434-0834 to make a reservation.
