Date &amp; Time: Saturday,&nbsp;October 10th from 12:00pm to 1:30pm
Location: IN-PERSON at Bowne House at 37-01 Bowne Street, Flushing, NY 11354
Program Description:&nbsp;The Bowne House Archives will showcase the historic documents that tell the story of abolition, manumission, and the Underground Railroad at Bowne House. A highlight of our collection will be on display: a letter carried to Bowne House resident William Bowne Parsons 176 years ago this month by a freedom-seeker on the Underground Railroad. This rare surviving document connects Bowne House and the broader Flushing community to a multiracial network of abolitionists and the aspirations of those who self-emancipated from slavery.
Jackson’s talk will explore the time and place of the letter’s writing, profile the Bowne House residents who acted as conductors, and share our still-evolving map of the anonymous freedom-seeker’s route to safety. A question-and-answer period will follow. Talk and Q&amp;A will run one hour, with an optional self-guided tour of Bowne House to follow.&nbsp;
PLEASE NOTE: The “Bowne Around Towne” Flushing Walking Tour will be offered at 2 p.m., following the presentation. <a href="https://www.bownehouse.org/events/save-the-date-bowne-around-towne-flushing-walking-tour-hzyeg" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">LEARN MORE HERE.</a> Those who wish to attend both events should purchase tickets separately. There will be between half an hour and one hour for attendees to get lunch in the neighborhood between events, depending on how much time they choose to stay at Bowne House following the talk.

Macdonald Park

October 24 is the last day to register to vote in New York — and the first day of early voting — exactly the kind of moment VOTEFEST was created for.
VOTEFEST is a creative voter-engagement movement designed to bring people in and make voting visible, social and contagious. HeadCount will be registering voters, with the League of Women Voters and other community groups providing assistance with voting plans, helping seniors and people with disabilities vote, election protection planning, poll monitoring and other voter information. Plus live music, art, camaraderie and empanadas.
From 2–3:30 PM, VOTEFEST takes over MacDonald Park. At 3:30 PM, we pick up the signs, head out of the park and turn VOTEFEST into a March to the Polls on the opening day of early voting.
VOTEFEST brings together organizations working on different pieces of civic participation — from voter registration and accessibility to election protection, voter education and community organizing. Participating and partner groups include HeadCount, the League of Women Voters, Common Cause, NYCLU, Hands Off NYC, Let’s Talk Democracy, Central Queens Mutual Aid, Central Queens Against Hate, Forest Hills Asian Association, Forest Hills Green Team, The Beacon, First Presbyterian Church of Forest Hills and other neighborhood and citywide organizations.
The larger idea behind VOTEFEST is bigger than a single event. Inspired in part by Stacey Abrams’s long-term approach to voter engagement, we’re developing a creative model that communities can adapt and make their own — bringing artists, musicians, organizers and civic groups together to make participation something people see happening all around them.
