In December 1846 William Seward publicly heralded the formation of the Correctional Association of New York (CANY) and a body tasked with monitoring conditions within state prisons. Not quite two centuries later, the SHM has partnered with CANY as part of its ongoing exhibit on the Seward family connections to the Auburn Correctional Facility. Both organizations will discuss their entwined pasts and future collaborations. This event will take place at the Equal Rights Heritage Center and is free and open to the public.

Bring your lunch and enjoy a lecture at the Equal Rights Heritage Center as the SHM reprises this popular monthly series. For our first installment, join Professor Michael Groth of Wells College for an overview of the often overlooked history of slavery in New York. Groth further explores the drawn-out process of emancipation, an intense contest between slaveholders and the enslaved over generations. This event will take place at the Equal Rights Heritage Center and is free and open to the public.

Enjoy an opening reception for a gift shop exhibit by the University of Rochester titled Going Upstate, complimentary refreshments, and rooms in the Museum open for interpretation. This event is free and open to the public.
