Art of Staten Island Day Tour with Cathie Behrend
April 14, 2027
8:45 AM-5 PM
Price: $275
Join public art expert Cathie Behrend for an art-filled journey exploring the hidden treasures of Staten Island.
Traveling by private coach from 92NY, we’ll begin at Staten Island Borough Hall, a historic landmark built in 1906 and home to the borough’s remarkable collection of WPA murals by Frederick Charles Stahr. The murals vividly depict pivotal moments from Staten Island’s history.
From there, we’ll continue to the tranquil Snug Harbor Cultural Center, where we’ll tour the grounds and enjoy a boxed lunch amid the beauty of the New York Chinese Scholar’s Garden. Stroll along bamboo-lined paths, discover waterfalls and koi ponds, admire Chinese calligraphy and encounter an array of gongshi, or scholar’s rocks.
Our final stop is the Alice Austen House, the former home and studio of the pioneering photographer and a designated National LGBT+ Historic Site. Austen created more than 8,000 photographs, many offering a distinctive view of women’s lives, relationships and everyday experiences during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Before returning to 92NY, enjoy sweeping views of the Verrazzano-Narrows Bridge from the house’s waterfront garden.
This experience includes transportation, admission fees, guided tours and a boxed lunch.
Rain date: April 16
