SUMMARY:City Tour—History in the Grove Walking Tour: The Barnacle to El Jardin
DESCRIPTION:Explore the history of Coconut Grove\, the land across from the light\, with Museum of Miami’s Resident Historian\, Dr. Paul George. Visit The Barnacle\, Commodore Ralph Munroe’s home built during the Era of the Bay\, and learn about the Coconut Grove Playhouse\, a former movie palace turned live theater venue. View architectural delights\, including El Jardin and Plymouth Congregational Church.  \n\n\n\nTicket includes complimentary pass to Museum of Miami. \n\n\n\nMembers: $25\, Non-Members: $35\, Children 14 & Under: $15\n\n\n\n\n\n\n    Register \n    \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFeatured Speakers & Sites:\n\n\n\n\nPaul S. George\, Ph.D.Resident Historian\n\n\n\nFor over three decades\, Museum of Miami’s Resident Historian Dr. Paul S. George has toured his way to local\, national\, and international acclaim with his continuing series of historic tours. Through walking\, coach\, and boat tour experiences\, Dr. George has welcomed tour participants on a memorable journey of South Florida through its historic neighborhoods\, landmarks\, and sites. As a Miami native\, author\, and former college professor\, Dr. George has gained fame for his uncanny ability to recall the most impressive details about the people and places that make South Florida so unique. \n\n\n\n\n\nThe Barnacle Historic State Park\n\n\n\nBuilt in 1891\, The Barnacle offers a glimpse of frontier life during the Era of the Bay\, when all travel to and from Miami was by sea. Situated on the shore of Biscayne Bay\, this was the home of Ralph Middleton Munroe\, one of Coconut Grove’s most charming and influential pioneers. Munroe preserved the forest on his land\, cutting out only a winding buggy trail through the hammock — barely wide enough for one vehicle. As a result\, the property contains many large\, old trees. Left in its natural state\, The Barnacle Historic State Park appears much as it did in Munroe’s day. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAdditional Information\n\n\n\nPlease see below for additional information regarding the tour.

SUMMARY:SOLD OUT! City Tour—Stiltsville & Key Biscayne Sunset Cruise
DESCRIPTION:Join Museum of Miami’s Resident Historian\, Dr. Paul George\, as he recounts the history of Biscayne Bay. Discover the storied past of Stiltsville\, a series of colorful wooden houses built on the flats of the bay and located inside Biscayne National Park. Known in the 1940’s\, 50’s and 60’s as a playground for the wealthy and well-connected\, Stiltsville was once home to the now infamous Crawfish Eddies and Bikini Club. Learn how this once vivacious community on stilts dwindled down to the seven houses that remain today. Dr. George will narrate and share stories of nefarious gangsters\, stunning graffiti\, and fabulous parties while guests cruise past the Cape Florida Lighthouse\, Key Biscayne\, and the City of Miami.  \n\n\n\nToday\, Biscayne National Park and the Stiltsville Trust work together to support the preservation of the remaining Stiltsville houses so that future generations can experience its unique history. \n\n\n\nWater and soda service is included in the ticket price. Additional light snacks and drinks are available for purchase from Island Queen Cruises.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n    Register \n    \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFeatured Speaker:\n\n\n\n\nPaul S. George\, Ph.D.Resident Historian\n\n\n\nFor over three decades\, Museum of Miami’s Resident Historian Dr. Paul S. George has toured his way to local\, national\, and international acclaim with his continuing series of historic tours.

SUMMARY:Stiltsville & Key Biscayne Sunset Cruise
DESCRIPTION:Join Museum of Miami’s Resident Historian\, Dr. Paul George\, as he recounts the history of Biscayne Bay. Discover the storied past of Stiltsville\, a series of colorful wooden houses built on the flats of the bay and located inside Biscayne National Park. Known in the 1940’s\, 50’s and 60’s as a playground for the wealthy and well-connected\, Stiltsville was once home to the now infamous Crawfish Eddies and Bikini Club. Learn how this once vivacious community on stilts dwindled down to the seven houses that remain today. Dr. George will narrate and share stories of nefarious gangsters\, stunning graffiti\, and fabulous parties while guests cruise past the Cape Florida Lighthouse\, Key Biscayne\, and the City of Miami.  \n\n\n\nToday\, Biscayne National Park and the Stiltsville Trust work together to support the preservation of the remaining Stiltsville houses so that future generations can experience its unique history. \n\n\n\nWater and soda service is included in the ticket price. Additional light snacks and drinks are available for purchase from Island Queen Cruises.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n    Register \n    \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFeatured Speaker:\n\n\n\n\nPaul S.

SUMMARY:SOLD OUT! History in the Grove: Charles Avenue Walking Tour
DESCRIPTION:Discover the fascinating history of one of Miami’s original settlements\, Cocoanut Grove\, as you stroll down its tree-lined streets. Learn how Bahamian settlers influenced the development of the Grove with their knowledge of tropical plants and native building materials. Reflect upon the legacy of the neighborhood’s early residents\, including E. W. F. Stirrup and Mariah Brown.  \n\n\n\nAs part of the tour\, enjoy a special look inside Macedonia Missionary Baptist Church\, which just celebrated its 130th anniversary! \n\n\n\nTicket includes complimentary pass to Museum of Miami. \n\n\n\nPresented in collaboration with Macedonia Missionary Baptist Church. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMembers: $25\, Non-Members: $35\, Children 14 & Under: $15\n\n\n\n\n\n\n    Register \n    \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFeatured Speakers & Sites:\n\n\n\n\nIngrid E. ArguetaCoordinator of Education Programs and Community Engagement\n\n\n\nIngrid E. Argueta was born in Guatemala and immigrated to Miami when she was 7 years old. Although not a native Miamian\, she is a 305-er at heart. Ingrid has remained true to her indigenous roots and is passionate about Native American history and culture. She is best known for her eco-history tours of Miami’s historic sites\, neighborhoods\, and waterways. Ingrid currently serves as Museum of Miami’s Coordinator of Education Programs and Community Engagement and has been with the museum for over 10 years. \n\n\n\n\n\nPaul S. George\, Ph.D.Resident Historian\n\n\n\nFor over three decades\, Museum of Miami’s Resident Historian Dr. Paul S. George has toured his way to local\, national\, and international acclaim with his continuing series of historic tours. Through walking\, coach\, and boat tour experiences\, Dr. George has welcomed tour participants on a memorable journey of South Florida through its historic neighborhoods\, landmarks\, and sites. As a Miami native\, author\, and former college professor\, Dr. George has gained fame for his uncanny ability to recall the most impressive details about the people and places that make South Florida so unique. \n\n\n\n\n\nThe Barnacle Historic State Park\n\n\n\nBuilt in 1891\, The Barnacle offers a glimpse of frontier life during the Era of the Bay\, when all travel to and from Miami was by sea. Situated on the shore of Biscayne Bay\, this was the home of Ralph Middleton Munroe\, one of Coconut Grove’s most charming and influential pioneers. Munroe preserved the forest on his land\, cutting out only a winding buggy trail through the hammock — barely wide enough for one vehicle. As a result\, the property contains many large\, old trees. Left in its natural state\, The Barnacle Historic State Park appears much as it did in Munroe’s day. \n\n\n\n\n\nMacedonia Missionary Baptist Church\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAdditional Information\n\n\n\nPlease see below for additional information regarding the tour.

SUMMARY:Sold Out - Stiltsville & Key Biscayne Sunset Cruise
DESCRIPTION:Join Museum of Miami’s Resident Historian\, Dr. Paul George\, as he recounts the history of Biscayne Bay. Discover the storied past of Stiltsville\, a series of colorful wooden houses built on the flats of the bay and located inside Biscayne National Park. Known in the 1940’s\, 50’s and 60’s as a playground for the wealthy and well-connected\, Stiltsville was once home to the now infamous Crawfish Eddies and Bikini Club. Learn how this once vivacious community on stilts dwindled down to the seven houses that remain today. Dr. George will narrate and share stories of nefarious gangsters\, stunning graffiti\, and fabulous parties while guests cruise past the Cape Florida Lighthouse\, Key Biscayne\, and the City of Miami. Today\, Biscayne National Park and the Stiltsville Trust work together to support the preservation of the remaining Stiltsville houses so that future generations can experience its unique history. \n\n\n\nWater and soda service is included in the ticket price.

Learn how the architectural revolution of the 1930’s defined this neighborhood as a lively vacation destination\, only to be turned in to a retirement community in the 1950’s and 60’s\, and back into the major entertainment destination that we see today. \n\n\n\nMembers: $25\, Non-Members: $35\n\n\n\n\n\n\n    Register \n    \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFeatured Speaker:\n\n\n\n\nJohn BachayCity Tours Guide\n\n\n\nJohn is a native of Wisconsin but has resided in the Miami area for over 40 years.

SUMMARY:Sold Out: Stiltsville & Key Biscayne Sunset Cruise
DESCRIPTION:Join Museum of Miami’s Resident Historian\, Dr. Paul George\, as he recounts the history of Biscayne Bay. Discover the storied past of Stiltsville\, a series of colorful wooden houses built on the flats of the bay and located inside Biscayne National Park. Known in the 1940’s\, 50’s and 60’s as a playground for the wealthy and well-connected\, Stiltsville was once home to the now infamous Crawfish Eddies and Bikini Club.

SUMMARY:Sold Out - Stiltsville & Key Biscayne Cruise
DESCRIPTION:Join Museum of Miami’s Resident Historian\, Dr. Paul George\, as he recounts the history of Biscayne Bay. Discover the storied past of Stiltsville\, a series of colorful wooden houses built on the flats of the bay and located inside Biscayne National Park.
