Legends of Sleepy Hollow 1792

Plainfield, NJ – October 20, 2018 -- The Historical Society of Plainfield/ Drake House
Museum will host a lecture entitled “Legends of Sleepy Hollow 1792” on Sunday,
October 28, 2018, starting at 2:00 PM at the Drake House Museum. The lecture will be
given by storyteller/re-enactor Alisa Dupuy from The Ladies of History Historical
Productions.
Alisa Dupuy will provide a dramatic reading of Washington Irving’s “The Legend of
Sleepy Hollow,” and will provide a historical presentation and talk about French-
American-British connections.
“The Ladies of History is a labor of love that grew out of a desire to study history, wear
fashions of different eras and bring history to life in a lively and fun way. History doesn’t
have to be boring!” says Ms. Dupuy.
This history program is made possible in part by a 2018 HEART (History,
Education, Arts Reaching Thousands) Grant from the Union County Board of Chosen
Freeholders and by the Historical Society of Plainfield/Drake House Museum.
Seating is limited and is on a first-come first-serve basis. Light refreshments will be
served. This event is free, and donations are always appreciated.
