Washington's Headquarters Pen Workshop
With original documents as your guide, create your own 18th century style letter using a quill pen, just as General Washington’s aides-de-camp did while at Headquarters Newburgh. This all-ages quill pen writing workshop will be held at Washington’s Headquarters State Historic Site, Saturday and Sunday, October 7th and 8th, at 2 PM each day.
The fee is $3.00 per person and includes your own quill pen to take home. Reservations are recommended as space is limited. Please note that the ink being used is permanent. The workshop is a Path Through History Weekend event.
While at Washington’s Headquarters for the workshop, take a guided tour of the historic Headquarters and explore the Museum’s exhibits, open 11 AM until 5 PM on Saturday and 1 PM until 5 PM on Sunday.
