The Museum introduces students to a Dutch Colonial family in Brooklyn with exciting, hands-on experiences. Originally a Dutch West India Company bouwerie (farm), the Wyckoff Farmhouse is the only surviving structure in the City from the period of New Amsterdam. From our 350 year old corn cob to the original one-room home that housed 13 people, students discover this earliest period of European settlement and the life experiences of rural Brooklynites over three centuries.
We offer on-site and in-school curriculum based programs, camp programs, and afterschool and professional development workshops.
