Lunchtime Lecture: “A Man On Fire”
4/24/2025 12:00 PM to 1:00 PM

The Seward House Museum’s Lunchtime Lecture Series continues with LeMoyne College Professor of History Doug Egerton. Before he was rivals with Abraham Lincoln, in the 1850s Senator William Seward found himself challenged by an abolitionist upstart from New England named Thomas Wentworth Higginson. Egerton will bring the stories of their friction to life in this discussion of his new biography of Higginson, "A Man On Fire." This event will take place at the Equal Rights Heritage Center and is FREE and open to the public!

Derby Hill Field Trip and Stewardship Project
4/25/2025 10:00 AM to 12:30 PM
In a single day, hundreds and sometimes thousands of raptors and other birds may pass Derby Hill Bird Observatory on their way north along the shore of Lake Ontario. Join Naturalist and former Derby Hill Hawk Counter Anna Stunkel at Derby Hill to learn about these birds’ journeys, get an insider’s perspective on how and why this research is conducted, and learn some observation tips for watching raptors on the move. For the second part of the trip, we will look for birds among the hedgerows and do some optional trail work to help maintain the habitat and trail accessibility here.
Please meet the group at 10 am at Derby Hill Bird Observatory. Dress warmly and bring binoculars if you have them; a few extras will be provided in addition to spotting scopes.
More details: This program is designed for adults. Space is limited. Online pre-registration is required. We will plan to go for a walk on moderate terrain around the hedgerows for the second part of the program. If parking at the base of the hill is required due to mud, the hike to the top is more difficult but car rides to the top in the Baltimore Woods vehicle can be accommodated.

Earth Day Stewardship Project at Baltimore Woods

Be a part of the annual Baltimore Woods restoration project to celebrate Earth Day! Join the Baltimore Woods Nature Center Stewardship Team to plant 350 native warm season grass plugs in a field on our newest 90 acres. These grasses will help increase the native cover of the field that we seeded in 2023, and establish some larger plants that can give rise to generations of future plants. They will also create some additional structure in a largely flat field.
More details: This event has projects for all ages! Participants under 18 years old must be accompanied by an adult. Be sure to bring enough water, closed toed shoes, and tick deterrent of your choice. Dress accordingly. Parking directions will be emailed in advance of the work project.

The Syracuse Orchestra: All Mozart
4/26/2025 7:30 PM

Three pieces by arguably one of the most famous composers to live, Mozart, follow the span of his adult life: his Symphony No. 29 written at age 18, Maurerische Trauermusik, written at age 26, and the famed Requiem, which some say he wrote anticipating his own death in 1791 at age 35. The Syracuse University Oratorio Society joins The Syracuse Orchestra for this epic, all-Mozart concert.
