MEET THE ARCHIVIST: FRIDAY BRUNCH & FIELD TRIP | Friday - 12:00PM
Join Borscht Belt Museum archivist Allen Frishman for a classic bagels-and-lox lunch and private tour of his home, a veritable museum chockablock with ephemera saved from oblivion. An author, preservationist and former building inspector for the town of Fallsburg, Frishman rescued countless objects -- telephone switchboards, bungalow kitchens, swizzle sticks and hotel signs -- before the bulldozers arrived. Many of them make up the Borscht Belt Museum's core collection.
