Join us for a day of immersive New York history!
Step back in time with the USF New York Alumni Chapter!
Join fellow Bulls for a journey through time at the Tenement Museum, New York City’s renowned tribute to immigrant and refugee experiences. On Saturday, December 6, we’ll gather for a 75-minute guided tour that brings to life the stories of two families who once called 97 Orchard Street home: the Rogarshevskys, a Jewish family from Lithuania, and the Baldizzis, Italian immigrants navigating life in Depression-era America.
Through their preserved apartments and powerful narratives, you’ll gain insight into the resilience, culture, and community that shaped New York’s Lower East Side, and the nation.
