Schuyler Sisters Topic of Library Zoom Tonight

For a deeper dive into Alexander Hamilton’s personal life, join the Warren County Library Zoom session on Elizabeth Schuyler and her sisters on Thursday, March 24, from 6:30 to 7:30 p.m.

History professor Rick Feingold will discuss four daughters of wealthy General Philip Schuyler who ran away to elope with rich men and also Elizabeth Schuyler who married for love, choosing Alexander Hamilton, a penniless, orphan, immigrant for love. He will read the love letters Hamilton sent to Eliza during their courtship then introduce two other women—Angelica Schuyler Church and Maria Reynolds—who were after Alexander. This program features music from the Hamilton Broadway musical including “The Schuyler Sisters,” “Helpless,” “Satisfied” and “It’s Quiet Uptown.” Register to receive the Zoom link with Laura at (908) 362-8335 or laurag@warrenlib.org.

NJ Makers Day

Dr. George Fischer will present a New Jersey Makers Day “Change is in the Air” experiment on Saturday, March 26, at 1 p.m. on Zoom, sponsored by the Warren County Library.

He will show how lowering the temperature can make things change in amazing ways we aren’t used to. We will liquefy air, make our own dry ice, lower the resistance of copper wire and increase the resistance of a semiconductor. We will also lower the pressure on balloons and marshmallows and quickly increase the pressure of air. Teens and adults register for this STEAM event with Kelly at kdurkin@warrenlib.org.
