The festival will be held on Saturday, Oct. 18 and Sunday, Oct. 19, Saturday, Oct. 25 and Sunday, Oct. 26 and Saturday, Oct. 31 and Sunday, Nov. 1. 

Reservations are requested for the children's storytelling times inside the church. There will also be a special pair of Reformation Day (All Souls) worship services on Sunday, Nov. 2 at the Old Dutch -- a rare opportunity to worship with our congregation in the legendary building, which is the oldest church building in New York State, accompanied by Bach fugues on our new organ and prayers of remembrance, and if it's chilly out, to be warmed by its wood stove. Services will be held at 9 a.m. and 11 a.m.

Entry to the Old Dutch Church of Sleepy Hollow involves negotiating a long, steep ramp, uneven stone steps, narrow entryways, and narrow aisles and is not wheelchair accessible.

There is no running water in the church; portable restrooms facilities are nearby. Members of the general public may call 914-631-4497 for more details.
