Events

Held at Historic Hudson Valley's Philipsburg Manor in Sleepy Hollow, this participatory workshop invites museum and historic site professionals to rethink how visitors move through, engage with, and understand historic spaces. Working collaboratively inside the host site, participants will examine visitor pathways, interpretive touchpoints, and moments of friction or opportunity within the visitor experience. Through hands-on exercises and discussion, attendees will experiment with alternative layouts, interpretive strategies, and visitor-centered approaches that move beyond signage alone. Participants will leave with practical tools and ideas for improving clarity, accessibility, and engagement at their own sites.
