Walkway Connections: Three Centuries on Historic Huguenot Street

Sunday, September 20, 2026 02:00 PM - 03:00 PM

Join us on Sunday, September 20 from 2-3 p.m. at the Ulster Welcome Center in Highland to learn all about Historic Huguenot Street in New Paltz. Historic Huguenot Street is a 10-acre National Historic Landmark District, where visitors experience over 300 years of history. Examining three historic structures along Huguenot Street, "Three Centuries, Three Cultures" explores the multicultural history of a unique American settlement, known today as New Paltz, New York: the Esopus Munsee wigwam represents the strength and sacrifices of this region's Indigenous peoples from pre-colonial America to the present day; the 1717 French Church teaches the European colonial origins of the multicultural Hudson Valley; and the Jacob Hasbrouck House shares colonial life for both the free and enslaved members of the community. All Walkway Connections events are free to attend and appropriate for all ages. Walkway Connections is supported in part by the Maurice D. Hinchey Hudson River Valley National Heritage Area.
