SLAVERY: THE GREAT AND FOUL STAIN:

This exhibit explores the history of American slavery and the views on slavery of the first 18 presidents of the United States along with other prominent Americans, the Philipse Family, and Europeans who had a significant influence on American politics and history. The exhibit explores the theme of slavery using the portraits in the Cochran Collection as historical documents and images, rather than as works of art.

The exhibit is open for regularly-scheduled two-hour tours and by appointment. School programs linked to the exhibit are also available. Please call 914-965-4027 for information on hours, fees, programs, and events.
