  • Shaker Museum Mount Lebanon to Present Lecture at National Arts Club
    PO Box 630 202 Shaker Road New Lebanon, NY 12125 518-794-9100 Contact: Wyatt Erchak, ext 220, [email protected] FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE │ Shaker Museum Mount Lebanon to present Lecture at National Arts Club │ (February 19, 2015) – On Thursday, March 19, the Shaker Museum Mount Lebanon will present a program at the National Arts Club in New York City. The program, titled “Mount Lebanon’s North House: The History and Legacy of a Shaker Masterpiece,” is part of a series of winter and spring programs sponsored by the museum in New York City prior to the museum’s annual June opening in New Lebanon, NY. The museum’s Director of Collections and Research, noted Shaker scholar Jerry Grant, will deliver an illustrated lecture focusing on one of Mount Lebanon Shaker Village’s best known structures. The North Family’s First Dwelling House, often called simply the “North House,” was constructed and raised in 1818 to house the North Family Shakers. The building was the home of the North Family Shakers until the last seven Shakers departed Mount Lebanon in 1947. In 1973, the structure was deemed to be a liability and was demolished. “The North Family Shakers, as the public face of the Mount Lebanon Shakers, made a great effort to present Shakers as progressive and modern,” noted Mr. Grant. “The North House was the physical manifestation of this effort.” │ The First Dwelling House, or “North House,” constructed 1818, Shaker Museum Mount Lebanon. A Retiring Room for Shaker Sisters was purchased, dismantled and removed from the North House before its deconstruction, and today is presented as a period room in the American Wing of the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
