Come visit the Old Stone House during our public Open Hours! Suggested donation for entry is $3, but no one is turned away for lack of funds. No reservation is necessary for entry.Please note that we host private or ticketed events that may limit public access to the exhibitions. The times listed here are the most accurate reflection of when the House is fully open to the public. Contemporary Art Exhibit (upstairs in the Great Room)<h3>"Lean In: A Small Quilt Show"</h3>The show features work by several Brooklyn artists, including both experienced quilters and those new to the craft. Artists were asked to respond to the prompt: “What makes you pause lean in and look a little more closely?” They were encouraged to forgo functionality and instead explore materials, form, and technique. The only constraint, that quilts must be 20” x 20” or smaller, offered a structure for experimentation and slowness. Permanent Exhibition<h3>The Old Stone House: Witness to War: An Exhibit Exploring Conflict from Kieft’s War through the Battle of Brooklyn and the Occupation, 1643-1783</h3>Old Stone House: Witness to War is a self-directed exhibit that takes visitors on a journey from the Lenape village of Marechkawick through Dutch colonization and the Revolutionary War era in Brooklyn. Ten themed areas allow visitors to explore this history and consider how war and displacement impacted the community, what choices people had to make at the time, battle strategies, and what makes these issues relevant in today’s world. <h3>ACCESSIBILITY</h3>The contemporary art gallery is on display in our Great Room which is up 18 steps with a railing on one side.Witness to War is on the ground floor.
