Ice Jam: Frozen in History (music event)
Sunday, February 23, 2025 01:00 PM - 03:00 PM
Schoharie Crossing State Historic Site
We look to warm ourselves in the depths of winter with songs of the frozen and forgotten. A wonderful arrangement of musicians will play songs of harrowing misadventure, cold misfortunes, and frosty forewarnings. Some songs tell a tale or let the listener beware, it is prudent to take caution and care. These songs range in time over the centuries and will be presented with some narratives to illustrate the icy thread through history. Join us for warmth in music and light refreshments. "Snow date" is March 2nd at 1pm
