“Instead of the real life walking tours we usually offer, right now you can join us on 20-minute talks as a “Historic Happy Hour for Curious People” on weekdays and 40-minute live, virtual tours on weekends. These online talks and tours are free, with a $5-25 suggested donation to support our small business. Public tours are currently suspended. Past talks and virtual tours are viewable on Youtube for a limited time.”
