General George Washington and Alexander Hamilton will mingle with families at the New-York Historical Society during the opening weekend of the new exhibition The Battle of Brooklyn. Ask these Founding Fathers what they learned from this historic defeat and how they helped the army bounce back to eventually win American independence. Families can explore the exhibition with our Family Activity Guide, which will be available daily throughout the run of the exhibit. Kids and grown-ups alike will also enjoy our Revolutionary craft activities!
