Museum Spotlight: Pennsylvania Trolley Museum
2024-09-17 17:00 - 18:00 | PA
Clang, clang, clang went the trolley…

At this virtual program, we welcome Jeanine DeBor, Director of Annual Giving & Marketing of the Pennsylvania Trolley Museum. Learn more about the history of this amazing museum, find out what’s new since their 2023 renovation, and hear the stories behind a few favorite trolleys! Following the presentation, there will be an opportunity to ask questions and learn more.

About Pennsylvania Trolley Museum:

The streetcar, or “trolley,” played a vital role in the growth of 20th century American cities. Because of this means of transportation, people could then live much farther from their place of work, which led to the development of the suburbs. In 1940 the Pittsburgh Electric Railway Club established a trolley museum in the Pittsburgh area, first in the eastern suburbs, and then in 1954 a site was chosen in Washington County, where the Pennsylvania Trolley Museum was established. It started with three trolleys; now there is a collection of 50 cars, over 600 members worldwide, 150 active volunteers, and over 30,000 visitors each year. The Pennsylvania Trolley Museum celebrated the opening of its new 21,000 square-foot Welcome & Education Center (“Center”) in November 2023.

Facebook: www.facebook.com/CarnegieCarnegie No Account Required!Zoom: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/9370579279 Meeting ID: 937 057 9279

Developed from research for his historical novel In Freedom’s Shadow, author Robert Hilliard will present a program on Spies, Slaves, and Secrets of the Civil War. This discussion will highlight a number of well-known, and some not so well-known operatives who served both armies during the Civil War.

The program will also cover the factors that led to a large number of spies in place throughout the war, as well as the espionage technology of the era. More specifically, the program will focus on the contributions of escaped slaves as a valued source of information to the U.S. Army, as well as active agents of intelligence-gathering who served undercover in the Confederacy.

Award-winning author Robert Hilliard has written on sports, history, and the outdoors for over three decades. Rob wrote for the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review, and other outlets such as Pennsylvania Wildlife and Pittsburgh History Magazine.

After contributing to a Beaver County history anthology entitled Rivers of Destiny, Rob wrote his first book, A Season on the Allegheny, focusing on Pennsylvania’s Allegheny National Forest. Rob’s first novel, the historical espionage thrilled In Freedom’s Shadow, won a 2024 International Firebird Book Award for African American Fiction, and a Spring 2024 PenCraft Book Award for Historical Fiction.

Dark History Pittsburgh presents Haunted Walking Tours
2024-09-13 20:00 - 2024-10-26 20:00 | PA
Every Friday & Saturday, October 13 – October 26Please note that the Friday, September 20 tour will not include a stop at Andrew Carnegie Free Library & Music Hall.

Carnegie! Where it all began. The original tour from Dark History Pittsburgh has 10 terrifying stops—all within a one-mile loop. The stories you’ll hear are all true and based on historical events.

Join Dark History Pittsburgh as their Spirit Guide takes you on a dark and macabre journey across a century of time. Gain entrance to one of the most mysterious buildings in the borough (but be prepared—we climb to the 3rd and 4th floors, which have not been inhabited in 90 years!). Tales are told by flashlight, and guests are encouraged to test the Ghost Net for any shadows crossing their path.

This tour also includes entry into the famed Library known as the “Carnegie Carnegie.” One of only three built under Andrew Carnegie’s personal supervision, this beautiful, historical building holds on to its own share of the unexplained. Flying books, shadow people, the Man in the Hat, and the Screaming Woman ~ all keep house here.

The tour ends in Carnegie’s first cemetery, hidden in plain sight, where you learn of the families who died and were buried there. Enjoy an interesting scavenger hunt as you find the Patriarch’s grave.

NOTES: You will be walking about 1 mile. We climb 3-4 stories of stairs, as some buildings are not equipped with an elevator. You will also briefly walk on/along railroad tracks.

Please wear comfortable shoes!

No pets allowed.

Unfortunately, this tour is not wheelchair accessible.

Suggested age is 12+ years
