Description

Originally located on Flatbush Avenue near Maple Street and moved to Prospect Park in 1918, this small landmark is jointly operated by the Prospect Park Alliance and the Historic House Trust. The site hosts indoor and outdoor exhibits of historic artifacts. Rather than relying solely on traditional displays, it incorporates hands-on activities, cultural performances, and imaginative play to explore local history, racism, and stories of resistance.
