Visit the Historical Society of Rockland County for an unforgettable experience of wonder and fun! We're opening our 1832 Jacob Blauvelt House to welcome children of all ages to celebrate Saint Nicholas as we've done since 1961. This traditional program is a highlight of the holiday season, and many adults who enjoyed this event in the past, as children, now bring their own families.
Join in the traditional Dutch celebration: see shoes magically filled with goodies; hear wondrous and joyful stories; enjoy holiday refreshments; meet Saint Nicholas and his beautiful horse!
Why not begin your own tradition and join us? Each child receives a special treat in his or her shoe from Saint Nicholas, and everyone can visit with Saint Nicholas and his horse!
COVID-19 Safety:
* Storytelling and refreshment service during the in-person programs will be held inside the Jacob Blauvelt House. Capacity in each time slot is limited to 24 people (adults and children). All guests entering the house over age 12 must be vaccinated.
* We are offering the St. Nicholas Day experience as a combination of curbside pickup and online storytelling again this year. Each Saint Nicholas Box* contains our traditional printed program highlighting this Dutch tradition. You will also receive individually packaged refreshments, recipes, special treats with instructions for filling children’s shoes, and a unique link to view our magical storytelling done virtually from the Jacob Blauvelt House. When you come to pick up your box on December 4-5, you’ll have a chance to visit with Saint Nicholas and his horse for a photo op.
* Up to five St. Nicholas boxes can be purchased per family on this site. If you need additional boxes, call us at (845) 634-9629.
