NAHC has had a busy year with more to come. Lectures, historic walks, and the continuing development of Mapping Early New York, our virtual New Amsterdam project, are some of our activities, but that has not stopped us from looking toward our future with a beautiful new, modern website, www.newamsterdamhistorycenter.org.
Launching this September, it has a brand-new look and feel, is easily navigable, with all of the rich content we had before still there, enhanced and increased with new articles, book, videos, and more. Take a look at Mapping Early New York with its encyclopedia and new 3-D model and see if you can find your Dutch ancestors. Click on a spot on the Castello Plan and see who lived there in the 17th century and what they did, all beautifully illustrated. Did you miss our Spring talks on the Vrooman Letters or the Little Ice Age? Well, now you can watch them on our website in the comfort of your home. All NAHC newsletters since 2017 are available for your reading enjoyment. Find learning resources and lesson plans about the history of New Amsterdam.
The New Amsterdam History Center website is the ideal place to begin to learn or further your knowledge about New York when it was New Amsterdam. And, If you think it’s all worthwhile, please do click on Help Us Grow https://b74.240.myftpupload.com/help-us-grow/where you can show your enthusiasm with a tax-deductible contribution that will enable us to continue our work.
We hope you enjoy exploring the new website as much as we enjoyed creating it. We invite you to send us your comments at events@newamsterdamhistorycenter.org.
NAHC warmly thanks Cynthia Bogart for her inspiration, enthusiasm and hard work that have made the new website possible.
