2025 Exhibit

Inspired by Nature: The Women Artists of Rokeby

The Robinson farm is set in a strikingly beautiful landscape. The ever-changing woodlands, ponds, and fields — abundant with flowers, plants, and animals domestic and wild — and nearby shimmering Lake Champlain crowned by Adirondack Mountain peaks, inspired the art of Ann Stevens Robinson and her daughters Rachael Robinson Elmer and Mary Robinson Perkins.

2025 Music with the Museum

Join us for the 3rd Annual Music with the Museum on May 29 — an evening of food and music featuring Patti Casey with Colin McCaffrey at the Ferrisburgh Town Community Center. A silent auction will be held to raise funds for Rokeby’s educational programming and preservation of collections and buildings.

Ongoing Main Exhibit

Ongoing Exhibition — Seeking Freedom: The Underground Railroad and the Legacy of an Abolitionist Family

Rokeby’s ongoing exhibit, “Seeking Freedom: The Underground Railroad and the Legacy of an Abolitionist Family,” explores the history and ongoing legacy of enslavement in the U.S. and the complicated story of the Robinson family as they went from enslavers in earlier generations to abolitionists in the 19th century.
