It’s important to start every story at the beginning, so in MJM’s upcoming commemorative exhibition “What the House Saw: 260 years of stories from MJM’s Collection & Community,” we are starting with before the Mansion was built in 1765. We will be rolling out each era in the exhibition for the rest of 2025’s Virtual Parlor Chats under the banner Connect260. During May’s installment of Connect260, join Dr. Matthew Reilly, CCNY professor and archeologist to talk about the work he’s done with Mansion staff in the preparation of Indigenous artifacts for this exhibition from past excavations of the Morris-Jumel property. Find out more about the Indigenous History of the Mansion in May’s installment of Connect260!
